Attention: Gaining and Maintaining Comfortability with Leather and Suede

It’s essential to keep these fabrics well maintained. With that in mind, know that there are particular risks associated with both leather and suede. That being said, knowledge is the best way to protect yourself: make sure you’re aware of what sort of solvents, soaps, and rubbers to stay away from. Otherwise, you could potentially make the fabric softer and molded -- which will ultimately end in a shortened lifespan for the shoes.

In that vein, gaining comfortability with leather and suede daim is the best method of making sure they’ll last a good while. Generally, it’s best to brush away any dirt, and let the fabric air itself out often. A simple brush of the fabric can be a good way to keep leather and suede from looking dry and puffy.

Interest: Best Practices for Cleaning Both Leather and Suede

It should go without saying, but the best way to maximize the lifespan of your leather and suede is to make sure they’re well taken care of. This includes daily brushing, cleaning with only designated fabric cleaners, and even rubbing with a damp cloth after a round of wearing.

When you do clean, please make sure to stay away from any solvents that may dry out the fabric. This will make it look older than it actually is. As an example, people often advise against using saddle soap on leather. As leather cleaners contain certain lanolin agents, they’re known to cause the leather to break down more quickly.

As for the suede items, there’s a dedicated cloth that can be used to clean the fabric. Pumice stones are also an option -- go lightly with this tool, as vigorous scrubbing can cause the suede to be particularly worn. And as a rule for both leather and suede, stay away from water – no matter how tempted you may be!
