shoe care

shoe care tips: adapted from some random newspaper cutting my mom handed to me...

- regular polishing does wonders fro your leather shoes. all you need is a tube of shoe polish, a soft cloth and some arm muscle to massage in a circular motion.

- give them a break. alternate btw 3 pairs of shoes at least.

- new shoes giving you blisters? rub in some good old olive oil. massage and soften it gently. works alot better than bitting your shoe.

- If your shoes got wet in the rain, dont put them out int he sun to dry, it'll crack the leather. instead, stuff some newspaper into your shoe to soak up moisture and leave them in a space away form heat.

- vomit-smelling shoes? try garlic! chuck a few cloves into them overnight and be amazed.

- suede shoes look best brushed. a toothbrush with hard bristles is enough.

- black patent leather shoes can be easily wiped clean with a damp paper towel.
