❷ Keep using shoes to avoid storing for too long

The shoes will not be damaged if they are not placed, and the adhesive on the sole is not resistant to moisture, which will cause the sole to become brittle and become a lot of powder. Take it out from time to time to check for damage, and do simple leather maintenance to avoid dryness. But the best way is to wear multiple pairs of shoes in turns.

When wearing shoes with laces, you should loosen the laces before putting them on to avoid deformation of the shoes due to squeezing.

When taking off your shoes, you should also avoid stepping on the heel of the shoe, or stepping on the upper with your left and right foot to avoid creases and damage to the upper.

You can use a soft dry cloth or a small brush to remove dust. If stains are attached, you can use appropriate soapy water/diluted shampoo to wipe gently. It is not recommended to spray alcohol directly on the shoe surface, which will not only damage the leather surface, but may also cause the shoes fade.
