Shoes need love
If you find your perfect shoe after a long time searching, you often think about your first trip in your new boots. But Stop! You should care your boots BEFORE your first use! So it is important to read the care regulations and to spray or wax your shoe before the first use.
Even more importantly is to give your shoes after the use a careful treatment. We humans care for our skin: we protect it from the sun, we clean it and use Moisturizers. Leather is also a skin, it is tanned and thereby conserved in its complete structure and thus in need of similar care.
We advise you, when you buy your shoes, to give a couple of pounds more for cleaners and proofers. Long term you will save time and money, because you have not to think about a new pair as soon. Properly maintained shoes last much longer!
The treatment has three objectives:
Water
All fabrics on the shoe are water repellent from the beginning.This hydrophobization decreases over the time, so it must be renewed.
Clima
Modern shoes are water vapour permeable to guarantee a good foot climate. This function must be preserved.
Material
Shoes mostly consits of leather. This needs regular food for a long life and to retain the form.
