Loake Kerridge Brogue Shoes - Green - UK 7.5

Polish your shoes about once a week, or as needed, to maintain their shine and protect the leather.

While the shoes can withstand some moisture, it's best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain. Use a leather protector spray for added water resistance.

Wipe the shoes with a damp cloth to remove dirt and dust. Avoid using harsh chemicals.

Wear dress socks that complement the color of your outfit. Avoid thick athletic socks, which can make the shoes feel tight.

Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Consider using shoe trees to help maintain their shape.

Allow some time for the shoes to break in. You can also use shoe stretchers or have them professionally stretched.

Use a leather cleaner specifically designed for leather shoes. Always test on a small, inconspicuous area first.

Use shoe trees when you are not wearing the shoes to help retain their shape and minimize creasing.

Apply leather polish that matches the color of your shoes to buff out minor scratches. For deeper scratches, consider professional leather repair.

Allow for a break-in period. Wear the shoes for short periods initially and gradually increase the wear time. Consider using shoe stretchers to help expand the leather.

If the shoes get wet, let them dry naturally, away from direct heat. Stuff them with paper to help maintain their shape. Once dry, recondition the leather.

Replace the laces with new ones. Measure the old laces to ensure you get the correct length.
