Leather Shoes
Our shoes are doing a great job every day so they deserve loads of love and care.
Best to not wear the same pair of shoes every day, otherwise the leather gets worn much quicker. Depending on type of shoe, a pair of shoe trees will help them dry between wears and keep their shape.
Clean away dirt and dust regularly with a damp cloth. And from time to time, allow your shoes to spa a bit – rub them with some shoe cream or wax and polish them.
Wet shoes: Dry at room temperature and avoid direct heat so the leather doesn’t dry out and crack. To keep them in shape, stuff with shoe trees or unprinted paper (the widely-known newspaper trick also works, but ink can possibly transfer). Smelly shoes: Put some dry tea bags into your shoes and leave overnight. Another powerful treatment is a little cotton bag filled with baking soda and some drops of an essential oil such as eucalyptus or tea tree. Also, let your shoes rest and breathe regularly.
