Care & Maintenance
Proper care is crucial to extend the life and maintain the appearance of your leather shoes.
- Regular Cleaning: Wipe shoes with a damp cloth after each wear to remove dust and dirt. For more stubborn marks, use a specialized leather cleaner.
- Conditioning: Apply a leather conditioner every few weeks or months (depending on wear) to keep the leather soft, supple, and prevent drying or cracking. This restores natural oils.
- Polishing: Use a good quality black shoe polish to cover scuffs, restore shine, and provide an additional layer of protection. Apply in circular motions and buff to a shine.
- Protection: Consider using a water and stain repellent spray specifically designed for leather to protect against moisture and spills.
- Drying: If shoes get wet, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources (like radiators), which can crack the leather.
- Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry place. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape and absorb moisture, preventing odors.
