Cleaning, conditioning, rotating and storing shoes properly keeps them looking good for years.
Good shoes are an investment. Simple care habits can double their lifespan.
Rotate Your Pairs
Wearing the same shoes every day prevents them from drying fully. Rotating gives the materials time to recover.
Clean by Material
- Leather — wipe, condition and polish regularly
- Suede — brush gently and use a protective spray
- Canvas — hand wash with mild soap and air dry
- Trainers — clean soles and remove insoles to dry
Use Shoe Trees
Cedar shoe trees absorb moisture and help leather shoes keep their shape.
Repair Early
A cobbler can replace heels and soles before damage reaches the upper, which is much cheaper than buying new shoes.
