Cleaning Your Men's Boots

 

At Spendless Shoes, the great thing about our men's boots is that they are made out of synthetic materials. The only leather made men's boots we stock are a part of our work range. Therefore, unlike leather fabrics, synthetic fabrics are a lot easier to take care of and look after. Synthetic fabrics are hard wearing, and unlike leather men's boots, they don't absorb stains and water as a leather shoe would.

 

The simplest way to clean your men's boots after wear is simply by wiping them over, using a damp cloth and gently wipe over the surface of your shoes, and leaving them out to dry in a cool, dim-lit room. It may seem like a good idea to keep your shoes out in the sun to dry out, but that's not the case. Leaving your men's boots out in the sun to dry will only leave your shoes looking tired and faded, so we recommend leaving your mens boots indoors in a cool, dim-lit room to dry.

 

The beauty of these shoes is that they are vegan friendly, meaning you don't need to worry about damaging the leather or suede boots, so you will easily be able to wipe over your shoes with a damp cloth. Once they've completely dried, spray over another coat of our protection spray.

 

A quick wipe over after wearing your favourite men's boots after a long day will keep them looking as good as new!

 

Storing Your Men's Boots

 

In terms of storing your men's boots, keep them off the floor; although it may seem like the easiest thing to do after a long day at work, it's certainly not the smartest! Throwing your shoes into the floor of your wardrobe will only make it hard to find the shoes you are looking for, and throwing shoes on top of each other will cause damage to your boots.

 

The best way to store your men's suede boots, heeled boots that you wear on a formal occasion, is in their original boxes. Doing this avoids any scuffs and movements from other shoes coming on and off the shoe shelf. However, if it's not possible to store your men's boots in shoeboxes, then keep them on a shoe shelf with other similar shoe styles.

 

Try and keep your men's boots stored together on a set shelf, rather than storing them with other everyday shoes like sneakers, runners and flip-flops. Keeping them on a shelf with similar shoes will help keep them dry and prevent outside elements from interfering. This will keep the dirt from the soles of your everyday footwear away from your beloved dress shoes and will, in turn, prevent any damage.

 

Now that we've shown you how important it is to keep your mens boots in tip-top shape, then give this guide a try with your favourite styles.
