HOW TO WASH AND DRY SHOES PROPERLY
Following these tips is mandatory for all types of leather shoes.
1. Rotate shoes at least every other day (if the weather is humid - 2-3 days). Leather shoes should dry completely. This simple habit extends their service life several times.
2. Wash shoes by wiping them with a damp sponge (do not pour water, do not soak or wash). You can thoroughly clean them from dirt with foam and a brush.
3. Dry shoes in winter at room temperature. Leave them on the floor for 1-2 days, having previously removed the laces and insoles.
Do not dry on batteries - under the influence of heat, the glue may activate, and the shoes may come unstuck. We also do not recommend using electric dryers. In the summer, dry the shoes in the shade, avoiding direct sunlight.
4. If you use cream or wax, first clean the shoes from the remains of previous products and dirt (it is better to wash with foam), dry the shoes and only then apply a new product. Otherwise, the product will accumulate and harm the skin.

HOW TO WEAR LEATHER SHOES
The skin needs time to adapt to the shape of the foot - usually 3-4 weeks of active wear. Therefore, do not rush to draw conclusions about comfort in the first few days.
We recommend:
• wear the shoes for a few hours a day at first;
• wear thicker or two thin socks;
• gently knead the places where the shoes are pressing with your hands;
• change the density of the insoles and socks if you feel that the size is not ideal.
If you have corns - take a break for a few days. It is also important to wear shoes in appropriate weather: heat and humidity can increase friction.
