Provided are a water repellent composition that makes it possible to obtain an article having excellent hot water repellency and dry soil resistance, a method for producing a water repellent composition, and an article having excellent hot water repellency and dry soil resistance. Provided is a water repellent composition including a copolymer having specific proportions of structural units based on monomer (a), structural units based on monomer (b), and structural units based on monomer (c). Monomer (a): compound represented by Ｒ Ｆ －Ｑ－Ｚ－Ｃ（Ｏ）Ｃ（Ｒ）＝ＣＨ ２ (R F : C4-6 perfluoroalkyl group, Q: divalent hydrocarbon group or single bond, Z: -O- or -NH-, R: methyl group or chlorine atom). Monomer (b): (meth)acrylate having cyclic hydrocarbon groups and a homopolymer glass transition temperature of 50°C or higher. Monomer (c): vinylidene chloride. |
