Product Care
Taking care of leather sandals involves regular cleaning, conditioning, and proper storage to ensure their longevity and keep them looking good.
Here’s a detailed guide:
Cleaning Leather Sandals
- Remove Dirt and Dust:
- Use a soft brush or cloth to gently remove loose dirt and dust from the sandals.
- For stubborn dirt, you can use a slightly damp cloth. Avoid soaking the leather.
- Spot Cleaning:
- Mix a very small amount of mild soap (like a gentle dish soap) or even better a cream suitable for leather, with water.
- Dip a soft cloth into the soapy water, wring it out very well, and gently wipe down the leather. Do Not saturate the leather. Always have in mind that any liquid is harmful for leather. The recommended cleaning solution is in most occasions dry cleaning.
- Use a clean, damp cloth to remove any soap residue.
- Drying:
- Allow the sandals to air dry naturally. Avoid direct sunlight or heat sources like radiators, which can dry out and damage the leather.
- Calf hair (pony) leather or Nubuck leather:
- Cleaning calf hair (pony) leather or Nubuck leather requires careful attention to preserve the hair and prevent damage. We recommend using a damp cloth or a soft brush, always working in the direction of the grain. Avoid brushing the fur back and forth
By following these steps, you can keep your leather sandals looking great and extend their lifespan.
