New shoes need a basic waterproofing treatment already before wearing them for the first time. A suitable waterproofing product is uniformly applied to each shoe 2 to 3 times. This application must not be wet and in between the applications, there should be enough time for the product to penetrate the leather. Never polish shoes which are still moist. Avoid excessive spraying applications.
Long-term efficiency of any waterproofing treatment is reduced due to the mechanical strain of walking and climatic effects. Accordingly, depending on the frequency of wear and the strain, losses should be made up regularly through renewed applications. Leather which loses fat constantly becomes hard and brittle after a while. Therefore, it is necessary to provide waxes and oils for its care. These are the ingredients of our care products and combined with the corresponding dyes for the necessary colour refreshment.
Leathers are cleaned depending on the type of leather. After any damp and wet cleaning a waterproofing refreshment should be performed as well.
