MAKE YOUR EXPENSIVE SHOES LAST LONGER

3 Ways to Make Your Expensive Shoes Last Longer

You’ve had the guts to buy the most expensive shoes you could afford. Girls will go bananas! But how to protect that pricey pair from wearing out?

If you are a shoe-addict (just like us), you are eagerly waiting when you can finally grasp that killer pair and walk them out or at least show off on Instagram. Just a sec! Read a few preventive measures to make your incredible treasure last!

If we, hasty girls, knew how easy it is to protect our invaluable shoes, we wouldn’t be so light-minded. Unfortunately, as a rule, the thoughts about prevention visit us a little too late. It takes less money and fewer activities than you could anticipate.

Get acquainted with our three tips on how to protect your precious footwear in the years ahead:

1) Use heel caps and rubber soles

Go to a shoemaker and ask him to add a thin layer of rubber soles of any colour you need. It takes some minutes, not more. In such a way, you will avoid bottom scraping or unpleasant odour. Should your footwear have stilettos, don’t neglect the strong heel caps – so that your shoes do not wear down too soon.

2) Leather needs to be Conditioned

You have never heard about leather conditioning? Well, it’s high time to learn about that! Additional moisture is one of the life’s essentials for shoe leather. It will make leather fabulously supple and will prevent nettlesome cracks. Prior to procedure, apply a soft shoe brush to clean the shoes, after that rub some conditioner onto the shoes. A few minutes later wipe the conditioner off – the leather absorbs only the needed amount. You will pay about $10 for your leather conditioner, but it is definitely worth it. And it lasts!

3) Store them Properly

The place where your shoes spend their days and nights (when not used) is vital. Scratching, fading and other problems can face you if the place was chosen wrongly. At least your most expensive shoes have to be kept in a box! Those linen dust bags can be a wonderful storage alternative whether you are in your home city or living out of a suitcase on a trip.
