Step1

REMOVE DUST AND DIRT

Begin by carefully removing dust and impurities from the leather with a soft-bristled brush. Then, use a clean, dry cloth to refine the cleaning and prepare the leather for the next treatment.

Step 2

NOURISH THE LEATHER

  • Apply a very small amount of cream or wax to the entire shoe. This can be a neutral color if you don't want to change the shoe's tone, or you can use a slightly darker shade if you prefer to create a patina effect.

  • Let it dry before polishing with a brush or cloth.

Step 3

POLISH

  • Next, you can apply another coat of wax in the matching color or a darker shade to add depth; this will give your shoes a lovely, glossy finish. Apply the wax to your shoes, let it sit for a few minutes, and then brush it off.

REMOVE DIRT AND DUST

  • First, brush your shoes with a crepe brush or a soft-bristled brush to remove dirt or dust.

  • To remove stains, you can use a kneaded eraser or our crepe brush.

PROTECT AND NOURISH

  • Once the suede is completely free of dirt and has been thoroughly brushed, you can proceed to apply a protective spray.It is important to follow the instructions on the spray cans and use only in a well-ventilated area, spraying from a distance of 8–10 inches (20–30 cm) from the suede.

  • Let it dry for 10 minutes and then brush with a clean brush.

Tip 2

PROTECT IT FROM THE ELEMENTS

  • Do not use the product while it is damp or wet, especially if it has a leather sole, as moisture weakens the adhesives, potentially causing them to degrade and components to detach.

  • Additionally, when leather absorbs water, it expands and loses rigidity, creating tension at the bonding points that can lead to structural failures and irreversible damage.

  • If the footwear or item gets wet, dry it at room temperature in a well-ventilated area away from heat sources. Natural drying prevents deformation and ensures that the adhesives regain their bond.

Tip 1

PRODUCTS NOT RECOMMENDED

  • All our leathers are designed to be cared for using products specifically formulated for leather footwear. We do not recommend the use of castor oil, horse oil, or similar products, as they can alter the leather's color, finish, and characteristics, causing irreversible damage.

LET IT REST FOR A WHILE

  • When not in use, store it in a cool, dry place away from direct light—preferably in its original box or protective case. To maintain its perfect shape, complete the care routine with our cedar shoe trees.
