Product care for leather
Leather shoes should always be waterproofed 1-2 times before use to protect against water, dirt and grime. To preserve the beautiful surface and natural properties of leather, we also recommend regular maintenance with both waterproofing and care products.
As leather is a living natural material, it needs moisture and nourishment to maintain its suppleness and shine. Leather grease is particularly suitable for this purpose as it both conditions and protects the surface.
Here's how you do it:
-
Cleaning:
Gently wipe the shoe with a slightly damp cloth or sponge to remove dirt. Allow the leather to dry completely at room temperature - without using heat. -
Care with leather grease:
When the shoe is dry, gently massage the leather grease in circular movements with a soft cotton cloth. Leather grease nourishes and extends the life of the material. For minor discoloration, use shoe polish in the color of the shoe and dab it on the exposed areas. Let the shoe dry again. -
Finish with waterproofing:
When the shoe is completely dry, finish the care with a layer of waterproofing to provide extra protection against external influences. -
For soaking:
If the shoe has become wet, it should dry completely before being worn again. Always avoid placing leather shoes close to direct heat sources such as radiators or heating cabinets, as this can dry out the material and damage the structure of the leather.
Regular care helps to preserve the natural beauty of leather and ensures that shoes stay supple, shiny and durable for many seasons.
