Care Instructions
Proper care will extend the life and maintain the appearance of your leather sandals:
- Regular Cleaning: For daily dirt, gently wipe the leather with a soft, damp cloth. For scuffs or tougher marks, use a cleaner specifically designed for white leather.
- Spot Treatment: Address stains as soon as possible. Use a small amount of mild soap (like saddle soap) diluted in water, applied with a soft cloth, then wipe clean with a separate damp cloth.
- Drying: If the sandals get wet, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and maintain shape. Allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat or sunlight, which can dry out and crack the leather.
- Conditioning: Periodically (e.g., monthly, depending on wear), apply a high-quality leather conditioner to keep the leather soft, supple, and prevent cracking.
- Storage: When not in use, store the sandals in a cool, dry place, ideally in a shoebag to protect them from dust and scratches. Avoid storing in plastic bags, which can trap moisture.
- Avoid Water Immersion: Do not submerge these leather sandals in water, as prolonged exposure can damage the leather and affect the adhesives.
