Taking Care Of Your Boots : A few good habits to adopt

You've finally found the perfect boots that fit your legs elegantly, and you want them to stay in good condition for as long as possible? We understand how important it is to cherish those shoes that bring you comfort and confidence. That's why we've put together a few practical tips to help you maintain and extend the life of your beloved boots. Follow these simple tips, and your wide calf boots will continue to shine year after year.

 

  1. Protect them before you wear them
    Before wearing your shoes for the first time, apply a protective/waterproofing spray suited to the material. Repeat regularly, according to the product's instructions.

  2. Clean them regularly
    To keep your shoes in perfect condition, get into the habit of cleaning them regularly after you've worn them. Use a soft, slightly damp cloth to remove accumulated dirt and dust. Depending on the material of your shoes, use appropriate products to clean/maintain them. This will help remove stains and prevent premature wear.

  3. Use shoe trees
    Shoe trees are essential accessories for keeping your shoes in shape. They prevent them from deforming and help wick moisture away from the inside. Choose the right shoe trees for your shoes, and insert them when you're not wearing them to keep them in good condition.

  4. Avoid wearing them every day
    We know you love your shoes, but wearing them every day can accelerate wear and tear. Alternate them with other shoes to give them time to recover and regain their original shape. This will also help them last longer.

  5. Store them properly
    Proper storage is essential to keep your shoes in optimum condition. Avoid stacking them on top of each other, as this can deform them. Instead, store them upright. If you're short of space, use individual storage bags to protect them from dust and unwanted rubbing.

  6. Have them professionally cared for
    From time to time, give your shoes a professional treatment by having them cared for by a trusted shoemaker. A professional will be able to give them a thorough cleaning, carry out minor repairs and maintain them properly to keep them in excellent condition.

 

 

Conclusion
By caring for your wide calf boots with love and care, you'll be able to keep them in pristine condition for many seasons to come.
Clean them regularly, protect them from water and moisture, use shoe trees and avoid wearing them every day. Proper storage and occasional professional maintenance will also help prolong their life.
Enjoy your favorite boots to the full, because these tips will ensure that they remain your faithful style companions for a long time to come!
