Harry Rosen Menswear: How to Care for Shoes
 
QUALITY SHOES REQUIRE QUALITY CARE
Polish shoes before the first wear to protect the leather and allow for an easier shine later on.

Keep shoes looking new with regular cleaning and polishing. Every leather is different and a knowledgeable sales associate can instruct you on which product is best suited to your shoes.

Avoid wearing the same pair of shoes 2 days in a row. You must give the leather the time it needs to dry from the moisture your foot has produced during wear.

Insert one hundred percent natural cedar shoe trees into your shoes to help retain shape and to absorb odour.

Always use a shoe horn to keep the heel counter (the back of the shoe) from losing its stability.

If shoes get wet, insert cedar shoe trees while the shoes are still damp and allow to air-dry. Avoid placing shoes near direct heat.

Heels should never wear down past the lift of the shoe. Regular trips to the shoe-repair shop will maintain soles and uppers and keep your shoes looking their best.
