Shoe care

Regular maintenance of leather shoes helps keep them in good condition and prolong their lifespan. Here are some instructions for leather shoe maintenance:

Tools Needed:

  • Soft brush
  • Clean, dry cloth
  • Leather shoe cream or wax
  • Sponge or brush for applying cream
  • Shoe polish (optional)
  • Waterproofer (to protect against water stains)

Maintenance Steps:

Initial Cleaning:

  1. Remove any debris, such as dust and dirt, from the shoes using a soft brush or a dry cloth.
  2. Make sure to clean between seams and crevices.

Stain Removal: 3. If there are noticeable stains on the leather, use a leather-specific cleaner or a solution made with mild soap and water.

  1. Apply the cleaner with a slightly damp cloth, gently rubbing the stains.
  2. Dry the shoes thoroughly after cleaning.

Leather Conditioning: 6. Apply leather shoe cream or wax to the shoe's surface to keep them moisturized and prevent dryness and cracks.

  1. Use a sponge or brush to apply the product evenly.
  2. Let it dry for a few minutes, following the specific product instructions.

Polishing (Optional): 9. If you want to give your shoes a shinier appearance, you can use shoe polish after applying the cream.

  1. Use a soft cloth or brush to polish the shoes in circular motions.
  2. This step will give your shoes a more lustrous look.

Water Protection: 12. To protect your shoes from rain and water stains, you can apply a leather-specific waterproofer.

  1. Make sure to let the shoes dry completely after application before wearing them again.

Proper Storage: 14. Store your shoes in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and heat sources.

  1. Use shoe trees to maintain the shape of the shoes when not in use.

Periodic Maintenance: 16. Repeat these maintenance steps every 4-6 weeks or more often if your shoes are exposed to particularly harsh conditions.

By following these basic instructions, you can keep your leather shoes in excellent condition for many years, preserving their appearance and durability.
