Care Instructions
Proper care is essential to maintain the appearance and longevity of your leather sneakers:
- Initial Protection: Before first wear, consider applying a high-quality water and stain repellent spray suitable for leather. This creates a protective barrier.
- Regular Cleaning: After each wear, gently wipe down the leather upper with a soft, dry cloth to remove loose dirt and dust.
- Deep Cleaning: For more stubborn dirt or stains, use a soft, damp cloth with a small amount of mild soap (like dish soap) or a specialized leather cleaner. Gently wipe the affected areas, then wipe with a clean, damp cloth to remove any soap residue. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.
- Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct sunlight or heat sources. Never put them in a dryer.
- Conditioning: Every few weeks or months (depending on wear), apply a leather conditioner to keep the leather supple and prevent drying or cracking. This is particularly important for colored leather.
- Storage: When not in use, store your sneakers in a cool, dry place. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape and prevent creasing.
- Laces: Laces can be removed and hand-washed separately with mild detergent if they become dirty.
