Leather is a natural product. As such, it changes with time and retains a unique patina. Nevertheless, leather should be treated with a certain respect by ensuring proper maintenance and timely mending. It’s indispensable to waterproof the leather before wearing it to protect it from moisture. In order to ensure a long last and to prevent brittleness, it is also important to store the shoes on wooden shoe trees in order to allow them time for recovery. Leather shoes should never been worn on two consecutive days, but always be granted a rest of at least 24 hours in order to ensure complete drying. Nourishing polish should be used on a bi-weekly basis or after greater soiling. Use a horsehair brush to polish the shoes afterwards.
