Every day dust and dirt should be removed. If the pair gets wet, dry it. If there are defects, remove them. You can not wear shoes with a torn seam, cracked heel, popped supinator. This leads to rapid wear and negatively affects your health.
Don’t wear the same pair of leather shoes every day. Sweat from the foot penetrates deep into the material from which the shoes are made, and begins to slowly destroy its structure.
It takes 24 hours for leather shoes to dry completely, and if you walked in it in the rain, two days. Wearing the same shoes or shoes you wore yesterday in the morning prevents the skin from completely drying out, which shortens the period of wear.
An important nuance in the care of shoes is its proper drying and storage. Never dry leather shoes near a fireplace or on a heating radiator. With prolonged exposure to high temperatures on leather shoes, cracks occur on this material.

Store shoes on pads, best of all from wood, but you can also from plastic. When shoes dry without pads in a bent form, the next sock you literally tear the skin on the creases. It causes cracks.

Even a really deep hole in your leather boots can become invisible if you use superglue.

- To restore the product, type some superglue on the tip of the toothpick. Holding shoes, apply the substance to the inside of the product.
- Then take a smooth fabric and press hard on the skin to securely hold superglue on it.
- Make sure the glue doesn't leak out.
- Keep the fabric on the product for 1-2 minutes.
- Then find a skin paint that is identical to the color of your shoe, and apply 2-3 layers on top. Let it dry.

- Then apply some wax to a clean cloth and slightly rub their shoes. Leave it for 5-10 minutes.
- Remove the excess wax with a clean area of the rag if it went wrong. Then apply two or three layers of paint on top and let it dry.
