Our experts suggest different cleaning methods for different types of materials.

Shoes in leather, calfskin and kidskin:

-    wipe shoes every day with a damp sponge to remove dust from the upper
-    use as brush to remove caked mud
-    rub neutral cream on your shoes regularly to hydrate and waterproof the leather, keeping it soft and protecting the upper from dust and rain

Patent leather shoes:

-    clean and polish the upper with a damp cloth
-    stubborn stains may be removed with a cloth soaked with a little alcohol

Suede and Nabuk Leather Shoes:

-    remove dust and light, dry stains every day with a metal wire and bristle brush
-    to remove stubborn stains wipe with damp sponge or a thin sheet of sand paper or piece of rubber

Canvas Shoes:

-    canvas shoes may be machined washed in cold water and a short spin drying cycle
-    if the shoes have leather or calfskin inserts, place the shoes under running water and rub with a sponge and a little neutral soap, then rinse well. Do not soak shoes of this kind in water since they may discolour. As an alternative, clean with a bristle brush under running water.
