Care Instructions:
To ensure the longevity and pristine appearance of your leather and nubuck Samba LTs, follow these care guidelines:
- Initial Protection: Before first wear, apply a leather and nubuck protector spray. This helps repel water and prevent stains. Reapply periodically as directed by the product manufacturer.
- Regular Cleaning (Leather):
- Wipe the sandstone leather upper gently with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt.
- For tougher marks, use a specialized leather cleaner applied sparingly with a soft cloth, then wipe clean.
- Regular Cleaning (Nubuck T-Toe):
- Use a nubuck brush or a soft, dry cloth to gently remove dust and dirt. Brush in one direction to maintain the texture.
- For stains, a nubuck cleaner can be used. Test on an inconspicuous area first.
- Sole Cleaning: Use a stiff brush or an old toothbrush with mild soap and water to clean the gum sole. Wipe dry.
- Drying: If shoes get wet, stuff them with paper towels to absorb moisture and maintain shape. Allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat or sunlight.
- Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape and absorb moisture.
- Avoid: Do not machine wash or tumble dry. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, which can damage the leather and nubuck.
