You’ve treated yourself to brand new Italian men’s leather shoes, and this purchase would have certainly burnt a hole in your pocket. If you have made an investment, you’d want to make sure these shoes last you for years. However, this will require taking proper care of the shoes as well storing them properly.

To ensure your shoes look great every time you wear them, following a few steps is a must. But more than that, you should buy the best possible option for yourself. For that you can look forward to have the personal shopping service from Select City Walk. Once you get your perfect pair of shoes, here is how you take care of them.  

How To Clean And Polish Your Leather Shoes

Before you begin polishing those shoes, you’ll need to clean them well first. This is an important step, as it will get rid of any dirt and dust particles, allowing the polish to condition the leather properly, which in turn ensures your shoes stay supple. Follow the steps as laid out below:

  • Use a soft bristled brush to gently clean out any dirt particles.
  • Next, using a gentle cloth and apply cleaner to the leather shoes. Use the soft bristled brush to rub the cleaner into the leather, while particularly paying attention to scuff marks.
  • Let the shoes dry for a period of 20 minutes.
  • Then, use a fresh soft cloth to work the conditioner on the leather in a circular motion.
  • Using the same cloth, apply a polish to the shoe, making sure it matches the shoe’s color. 
  • Wait another 20 minutes and apply a spray-on, which will waterproof the shoes.

Storing Your Italian Leather Shoes

Did you know that leather can crack if shoes are left badly stored for an extended period of time? A pro tip is to store shoes in a temperature-controlled area away from direct sunlight. Furthermore, remember to wrap the shoes in acid-free tissue paper and then in a plastic bag in order to keep dust away and ensure the leather stays moisturized.

You can purchase as many men’s shoes online as you’d like, but it is important to also remember to take care of them. You should make it a point to ask the shoe assistant for care tips as well when buying your shoes to ensure they stay in the best shape.
