Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your 1461 shoes last for years, proper care is essential. Upon receiving your shoes, ensure a snug but comfortable fit, as the leather will stretch slightly to conform to your foot. Keep the leather hydrated using a leather balm or cream designed for vintage finishes to prevent cracking. Avoid using harsh chemicals that could damage the unique colour treatment. Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use, and use a shoe horn when putting them on to maintain the integrity of the heel structure.
