“One shoe can change your life”- Cinderella
As lovely as it is to have a classic pair of shoes that turn heads, it is equally important to care for them and make sure they last long since they're a valued addition to your wardrobe.
Here is a comprehensive guide with important tips which you need to know in order to take care of your leather shoes.
1. Keep your shoes away from direct sunlight as this might lead to fading and cracking of the surface of the shoes.
2. Keep your shoes away from water and in case they get wet, make sure to dry them before you store them.
3. Clean your shoes with a dry soft cotton cloth. This will help with getting rid of any dust or soil particles sitting on the surface.
4. We know you love your shoes dearly, but always remember to give them breathers between wear, especially leather shoes. Since leather is natural, it requires time to breathe and remain dry.
5. For leather shoes, occasionally use a leather cream or conditioner to keep your footwear from becoming too hard and cracking up
6. Storing your shoes correctly is one of the most important ways to make sure they last and live a good life. While putting your shoes away, it is advisable to use a shoe tree or the ball of paper your shoes come with so that they retain their shape and not crinkle or crease. Use the dust bags we've provided to store them in a cool, dry and dark place. In case you live in a humid city like Mumbai, remember to store your shoes with naphthalene balls or silica gel sachets - this will prevent the dampness and keep your footwear dry.
