Care Instructions
Proper care will extend the life and maintain the appearance of your leather Skechers Respected - Elgin shoes.
- Cleaning: Gently wipe off surface dirt with a soft, damp cloth. For deeper cleaning, use a specialized leather cleaner designed for smooth leather.
- Conditioning: Apply a leather conditioner regularly (e.g., monthly, depending on wear) to keep the leather supple and prevent cracking. Follow the conditioner product instructions.
- Drying: If shoes get wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as this can damage and stiffen the leather.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain the shoe's shape.
- Protection: Consider applying a leather protectant spray to help repel water and stains, especially before initial wear.
