Clean them
Regularly brush the leather with a soft brush, then nourish it with a neutral or color-matching polish. Once dry, reapply waterproofing spray.
Keep them dry

How to care for your leather and neolite soles?
High-quality materials
We’ve chosen to work with premium leather and neolite soles, along with Blake stitching construction, which ensures finesse, flexibility, and durability.
With protective soles
Some people choose to have protective soles (patins) added by a cobbler. This not only protects the original soles from wear and rain but also adds an anti-slip surface.
Without protective soles
Leather shoe enthusiasts often prefer not to add protective soles. In that case, it’s recommended to avoid rainy days and check the condition of the soles from time to time. When signs of wear appear, it’s the perfect moment to give your shoes a second life by having protective soles fitted by your cobbler.
