How to maintain leather travel shoes

The leather of leather shoes is like human skin. It needs sun protection, cleaning and maintenance, and so do leather shoes. If you spend 1000 yuan on a pair of good brand-name shoes, it will become an expense if you wear them for less than half a year. It's really unbearable to shout. So, take some time to prolong life, not a little lazy! ◎ Before new shoes go on the road, brand-new leather shoes should be covered with upper protective covers. Once purchased, you should start maintenance work. You can apply a thin layer of shoe polish to form a protective film, or rub some wax to make them durable, because the composition of wax can protect the vamp from being damaged, and it also has the function of moisture prevention. In this way, the most basic protection and isolation can be achieved, and the subsequent maintenance actions can be more handy. However, the amount of application should not be too thick, but it will be more convenient. ◎ The usual maintenance method has formed a good habit of checking as soon as you take off your shoes!

As long as the shoes step out of the house, it is inevitable that they will not be contaminated with dust and dirt. It is best to start cleaning the steps as soon as you get home. Otherwise, it will be more difficult to arrange over time and the service life will be shortened. Try not to get wet when cleaning. Wipe off the dust and sludge on the vamp with a dry fluffy cloth or soft brush, and then coat the same color shoe polish or colorless and transparent shoe milk with a cloth or sponge to form a protective layer and maintain the leather. As for sewing thread, you can wipe it with a little soapy water with an unused toothbrush, or you can clean it with a multifunctional special brush; If you find that there is odor residue in your shoes, you can buy a bottle of spray deodorant to remove the odor, or you can dig out some deodorant used in the refrigerator, put it in a small cotton bag, and then stuff it into the front of your shoes to completely remove the odor in your shoes. In addition, in terms of maintenance times, at least once a week, clean as long as you land! ◎ What should I do if my shoes are wet? Moisture is very harmful to leather shoes, so try to wear leather shoes in rainy days! If you have to or happen to meet, it is imperative to keep your shoes dry. In addition to the same cleaning procedure, you can use old newspapers (more absorbent), cotton paper and other waste paper with good water absorption, rub them into a ball and put them in shoes to absorb moisture, and put them in a well-ventilated place to dry in the shade. It is best to put it in a moisture-proof shoe bag after air drying. If there is no moisture-proof bag, the shoe box attached when buying shoes is actually very useful and has the same effect. If you wear shoes often, wait until they are completely dry before putting them in the shoe cabinet. In addition, do not use hair dryer, hair dryer, sun drying and other rapid drying methods. Quick drying can easily accelerate the aging of leather, and shoes will soon tell you that they are broken. If you want to love shoes and your appearance, don't wear them every day! Our feet will sweat about 2000c.c in a week, even if they are not super sweaters, most of them will evaporate after taking off their shoes. However, some sweat remains on the inside and bottom of the shoe. Because leather shoes can't be washed like clothes, it is easy to breed bacteria and produce strange smell. Generally speaking, if you wear leather shoes every day, you can only wear them for about six months. However, if you have three pairs of leather shoes to wear alternately, you can wear them. Therefore, it is best for a person to wear two or three pairs of shoes in turn, so that the shoes can have more time to breathe and keep their original shape, thus maintaining the perfection and life of the shoes.
