Proper care is essential to maintain the appearance and longevity of your leather brogues:
Cleaning: Regularly wipe down the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt and dust. For more stubborn marks, use a specialized leather cleaner applied with a soft cloth, following the product's instructions.
Conditioning: After cleaning, apply a high-quality leather conditioner or cream to keep the leather supple and prevent it from drying out, cracking, or fading. Apply sparingly and buff gently with a clean, dry cloth.
Polishing: For enhanced shine and color preservation, use a wax or cream polish specifically formulated for brown leather. Apply with a soft cloth or brush, then buff to a desired luster.
Drying: If your shoes get wet, blot away excess moisture immediately with a clean cloth. Allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, which can damage leather.
Shaping: Use cedar shoe trees when not wearing the shoes. Shoe trees help absorb moisture, prevent odors, and maintain the shoe's original shape, minimizing creases.
Storage: Store your brogues in a cool, dry place, ideally in shoe bags to protect them from dust and scratches.
