How to Keep Your LESMERI Pair Looking Its Best

Every pair of LESMERI footwear is the result of skilled craftsmanship, thoughtful design, and careful attention to detail. Proper care will help preserve its comfort, appearance, and durability for years to come.

We've put together essential recommendations for caring for natural leather and footwear components so you can protect your investment and keep your pair looking its best.

Preparing Your New Pair

Before wearing your shoes for the first time, apply a high-quality leather conditioning cream.
This helps nourish the leather, improve its flexibility, and maintain a rich, natural finish.
For the best results, choose a cream that matches the color of your footwear. Color-matched creams, as well as neutral options, are widely available.

Protective Treatment

After conditioning, apply a water-repellent protective spray.
It creates an invisible protective barrier against moisture, dirt, and everyday wear while helping preserve the leather's color and finish.
This treatment is especially recommended if your footwear is frequently worn outdoors or in changing weather conditions.

Regular Cleaning

Clean the leather regularly using products specifically designed for natural leather.
Before cleaning, allow your footwear to rest after wear. Evening care is ideal, as leather should dry completely (at least 4 hours after any damp cleaning) before applying conditioner or protective products.

Caring for Leather Soles

After each wear, gently clean the outsole using a soft brush.
This is particularly important for footwear with genuine leather soles, as regular cleaning helps extend their lifespan and maintain optimal performance.

Insoles & Hygiene

After wearing your shoes, always loosen the laces or unzip them before removing the pair, allowing the footwear to air dry naturally.
If needed, use an antibacterial shoe spray to keep the insole fresh and maintain everyday comfort.

Storage

Before storing your footwear, ensure it is clean and completely dry.
Apply leather conditioner when necessary, allow it to absorb fully, then store your shoes in the original box or a breathable fabric dust bag.
To help maintain their shape, use shoe trees or fill the shoes with acid-free paper.

Timely Maintenance

To preserve stability and comfort, replace heel tips as soon as signs of wear become visible.
