How to properly maintain leather shoes?

Maintenance Instructions for Leather Shoes

1: Avoid soaking in water: Soaking leather shoes in water will cause the fibers to absorb water and make the skin swell, and the leather will become hard and dyed. During the wearing process, if it is exposed to rain, use cotton cloth to dry it, and put it in a cool place to dry naturally before wearing it. The water-dyed cowhide is highly permeable, so the pore texture is retained on the leather surface. Therefore, it is easy to be smudged by the penetration of colored liquids.

2: Daily care: New shoes do not need shoe polish. At this time, the leather of the shoes is oily and waxy, and it comes out from the inside. When the leather surface is dry, polish the leather surface with a dry face or cotton cloth, and the leather surface will be more shiny. If there is frequent dust, you can use a small amount of colorless shoe polish to maintain the leather surface from time to time according to the leather condition.

3: Replacement storage: It is recommended to replace 2-3 pairs of shoes for daily back view. If you wear it for a long time, the inside of the shoe will be in a wet state for a long time, which will shorten the life of the shoe. It is recommended to store it in a cool place when not wearing it for a long time.

4: Dyeing of socks: the cowhide with water dyeing process, the dark leather will have slight discoloration. It is recommended to choose dark color socks in the early stage. The color fading will not appear after wearing it a few times in the later period. Notice! If soaked in water, it will definitely lose color.
