Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Samba Jane sneakers remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:
- Breaking In: New leather shoes can be stiff. Wear them for short periods initially to allow the material to conform to your foot shape.
- Cleaning: Use a soft, dry brush to remove loose dirt from the leather. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth and mild, pH-neutral soap, avoiding harsh chemicals that could strip the finish.
- Storage: Keep the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent leather drying or color fading. Use shoe trees or crumpled paper to help the shoes retain their shape when not being worn.
- Protection: Consider applying a leather-safe water and stain repellent spray, specifically designed for smooth leather, to add a layer of protection against unexpected weather.
