*CARE TIPS FOR LEATHER SHOES*

Regular Cleaning:

Wipe off dirt and dust with a soft, dry cloth or brush after every wear.
For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth with a mild leather cleaner or soap, and wipe it dry immediately.

Conditioning:

Apply a leather conditioner periodically (every 1-2 months) to prevent the leather from drying and cracking.
Use a small amount and rub it in gently with a soft cloth.

Polishing:

Use a quality shoe polish in a color that matches the leather to maintain its shine and protect the surface.
Apply the polish in circular motions, let it dry, and then buff with a soft brush or cloth.

Waterproofing:

Treat your leather shoes with a waterproofing spray or wax to protect them from moisture, especially in rainy or snowy weather.

Proper Storage:

Store your leather shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight or heat to avoid cracking and fading.
Use shoe trees to help maintain their shape and absorb moisture.

Avoid Overuse:

Rotate your shoes and avoid wearing the same pair every day to give the leather time to breathe and recover.

Protection from Stains:

Wipe off spills immediately to prevent stains.
For tough stains, use a leather-specific cleaner or consult a professional.

Drying:

If your leather shoes get wet, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and let them air dry naturally.
Avoid using direct heat sources like hairdryers or radiators as they can damage the leather.

Sole Maintenance:

Inspect the soles regularly and replace them when they show significant wear to prolong the shoe's life.

Special Care for Suede/Nubuck:

- Use a suede or nubuck brush for cleaning and avoid water-based products.
- Apply a suede protector spray to maintain the material's texture and protect it from stains.

Bonus Tip: For long-term storage, wrap the shoes in breathable cloth or keep them in their original box with silica gel packs to avoid moisture buildup. Following these tips will keep your leather shoes looking stylish and well-maintained for years.
