| Fashion Expert | Leather Shoes
By Colin R McDonald
They are the shoe of choice for traditionalists and those looking for an investment piece. They are durable and, with the proper care, can last for many years. When purchasing a pair of leather shoes, take into account that leather is a natural material and will mold to your foot. There is a "break in" time, which is unlike most made out of synthetic material. This custom molding is what makes leather shoes so incredibly comfortable over the years. Simply wear the shoes and let them conform to your foot, or use a store-bought shoe stretcher.
Shine: Shining and polishing shoes adds a special touch to the look of your leather. But polishing does more than just add a little shine, it can extend their life. The treatment can add years of value by moisturizing the leather. Leather will dry out if it not conditioned regularly, causing cracks in the leather shoes which will ultimately make the leather fall apart.
Leather shoes also need to be cleaned. Use a shoe brush to remove dirt and debris. They are subject to salt stains as well. Salt stains can be easily removed if caught early, with a mixture of one cup hot water and one tablespoon white vinegar. Gently scrub with a soft rag and then let the shoes air dry.
* Regularly worn they should be polished once a month. But cleaning should be done as needed.
* Shoes that are seldom worn can be shined as needed, but continue to clean once a month.
* Store leather shoes on a shoe tree between wearings to help them retain their shape.
* Putting a cedar block in the leather shoes when not wearing can help control odor problems
Types of Shoe Polish: Shoe polishes can be found as a wax, a paste, a liquid or a cream. Wax is best for leather shoes that are regularly exposed to the outdoors. Wax will eventually dry the shoes out, so it needs to be used in addition to a good leather conditioner to preserve the leather.
Creams and pastes add moisture to the leather and are excellent for covering scratches. They are useful for either shiny or smooth leather dress-shoes. Liquid shoe polish has the same effect as wax on the leather, so use this kind sparingly.
Shoe wipes and shine sponges are other products that can be used to clean and polish leather shoes. They are both handy, but don't take the place of a good cleaning, conditioning and polishing.
*Apply the polish of choice in small, circular motions, starting at the heel of the shoe. Take special care around seams and stitching, scratches and scuff marks. Use a soft rag and a gentle touch.
With care, leather shoes can last a good long time.
