Considering the high cost of quality leather dress shoes,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], it is important to know hot to take proper care of them. Cheap dress shoes contain lots of non-natural materials that will not breathe as easily, and will not mold to your feet like higher quality leather shoes would. Such shoes usually cost over $100, and if the designer is something that is important to you,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the cost can be five or six times this high. The advice is not to save on dress shoes when you buy them,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but save money by making sure to get more life out of them. Knowing how to take proper care of them is key. This article will teach you all you need to know.
Using water repellent:
Before you take your new shoes out for their initial walk, apply a coat of water repellent on upper leather and leather sole. After the first application,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], regularly reapply according to instructions. Best are water-based repellent since they will close they will protect the leather without closing the pores that will help escape moisture and sweat from your feet to the outside. Moisture affects the elasticity of leather, so it is important to keep it balanced. Too much moisture will cause leather to stretch and too little moisture will cause the leather to shrink. Anyhow, both cases render the leather ugly and lose its original shape. For just $8, you can get a can a spray-on water repellent.
Tip: Shoes should be wiped with a clean and warm sponge before putting on another coat of repellent. Doing this will warm the leather and make it more porous and improve its ability to absorb the product as well as prevent trapping dirt in between the leather and repellent.
Using shoe polish
A good quality shoe polish should keep your leather shoes shining like a new dime,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]. Regularly polishing your shoes does two things: It covers the leather and repairs the damage of daily use,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]; and it nourishes and moisturizes the leather so that it will stay flexible and healthy,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych].

Hanging your shoes on a tree
It is ideal to use shoe tress with any good pair of leather shoes as they can make your shoes last the extra mile,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]. What is great about shoe trees are that they help the leather maintain is form by filling it out. This avoids shrinking and creasing of the leather.
