Textile sneakers – such as mesh, polyester or canvas – are especially vulnerable in rain and slush, but can stay looking great with just a few simple steps.
Waterproofing: Spray your sneakers with a protective spray before first use – and reapply regularly.
Cleaning: Wipe the shoes with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh cleaning agents – they can damage the material and color.
Tip: If the shoes are very dirty, you can gently clean them with mild soap and lukewarm water – and let them air dry slowly.
When the weather changes and your shoes face daily exposure to moisture, dirt, and salt, proper care is essential. With the right maintenance, your sneakers, rubber boots, leather shoes, and suede footwear will stay stylish and functional for many seasons. Here's your step-by-step guide to taking the best care of your shoes during autumn and winter.
Rubber boots should handle rain, mud, and forest floors – but only if you take proper care of them, especially when they’re not in use.
Cleaning: Wipe your boots with a damp cloth after use. This removes dirt and helps keep the rubber soft and flexible.
Storage: Let them air dry at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight, heated floors, or radiators – these can dry out and damage the rubber.
Styling tip: Rubber boots look their best when worn with warm wool socks and not stored wet in closed cabinets.
Suede is a beautiful yet delicate material that requires a bit more care – but rewards you with long-lasting wear and a refined look.
Before use: Always apply a waterproofing spray before wearing suede shoes for the first time. Use a spray suitable for suede – and repeat a few times per year.
Cleaning: Use a soft brush or a special suede brush to remove stains and revive the surface. For stubborn dirt, you can use a mixture of water and a little vinegar – but test it on a small area first.
Maintenance: Over time, suede can become shiny. Lightly brush the surface to restore its signature matte texture. You can also use a color-matching suede spray to refresh the shade.
Always waterproof your footwear before first use – and reapply after cleaning
Let shoes and boots dry naturally – avoid heat from radiators or drying cabinets
Store footwear in a dry, well-ventilated space, ideally with shoe trees or newspaper
Clean your shoes regularly – not just when they look dirty
Boots with wool or fleece lining are perfect for cold days – but the lining needs care to stay fresh and keep its shape.
Drying: Let lined shoes air dry slowly after use – avoid heat sources like radiators or drying cabinets.
Storage: Use newspaper or a shoe tree to help boots retain their shape and stay dry inside.
Freshness tip: Air out your boots regularly, and consider using a natural shoe deodorizer if worn daily.

Leather shoes and boots are both elegant and durable – but need some maintenance to stay in good condition season after season.
Cleaning: Wipe your shoes with a damp cloth after use. Remove dirt and road salt, which can dry out the leather over time.
Care: Use shoe cream in a matching or neutral color to restore shine and keep the leather soft. In wet conditions, you can add leather grease for extra moisture protection.
Protection: Finish with a waterproofing wax or spray to help your shoes resist rain and slush.
