Leather Care Basics
Now that you (hopefully!) have your own pair of made-to-order Adelantes, here's how to keep your leather in tip-top shape.
Dirt happens!
- Life gets messy, but no worries! You can remove surface stains with a damp cloth, or use a spot cleaner if necessary. First wipe with a damp cloth, then use a cleaner with tea tree oil extract like our Cleanse & Purify Leather Cleaner.
Conditioned shoes are happy shoes.
- Your leather will stay happy and healthy with regular conditioning. Condition your leather after cleaning to prevent drying, cracking, and color changing. With any leather conditioner, we recommend a beeswax base with natural lipids. We’re partial to our Hydrate & Condition Cream.
Rain, rain, go away...
- Your leather needs serious water protection. When it comes to leather, natural is best. Natural sprays require more regular application, but they won't clog leather pores like synthetic alternatives. We love our Protect & Seal Spray, but any treatment that doesn’t use synthetic chemicals will do the trick.
Don't get bent outta shape, keep your shoe shape!
- Pro tip: shoe trees are awesome for leather shoes. They will help hold the shape of your shoes and will wick away moisture after wearing them on a hot day. Our favorites are Rochester brand cedar shoe trees.
Bonus Tip From the Adelante Artisans: Your shoes outlast their soles! The outsole and heel cap of your shoes will wear down long before any other part. A good local cobbler can replace them.
