Summer Shoe Care 101

Summer can be tough on shoes—think sweat, sand, and unexpected rain showers. But no worries, we've got the perfect solutions with some straightforward tips and the best products from Shoelada.

1. Cleanliness is Key

First things first, keeping your shoes clean is a must. Here's how to tackle different materials:

Sneakers and General Cleaning: For a thorough clean, the Shoelada Kit is your best friend. It comes with a cleaner and two brushes. Use the cleaner with the soft brush for delicate materials and the stiff brush for tougher spots. Just mix the cleaner with water, scrub gently, and wipe clean. Your shoes will look brand new!

2. Whitening Wonders

Summer can make those whites look grimy fast. Keep them gleaming with these Shoelada solutions:

Sole Whitening: If your rubber shoe soles are looking dull, the Shoelada Sole Cream is perfect for whitening them up. Apply the cream, let it sit for a bit, and then wipe away to reveal bright, clean soles.

Overall Whitening: For canvas or other white materials, the Shoelada Whitener is a game-changer. Apply evenly, let it dry, and your shoes will look pristine again.

3. Fight the Funk

Summer heat means sweaty feet, which can lead to smelly shoes. To keep things fresh, proper cleaning from the Shoelada Kit helps a lot. After cleaning, let your shoes air out thoroughly before storing.

4. Suede Care

Suede shoes are stylish but need special care:

Suede Eraser: For scuffs and marks, the Shoelada Suede Eraser works wonders. Gently rub the eraser on the affected area, and watch those marks disappear.

5. Proper Storage

When you're not wearing them, storing your shoes correctly can make a big difference.

Shoe Trees: For maintaining the shape and absorbing moisture, the Shoelada Shoe Trees are essential. They keep your shoes looking sharp and fresh, especially after a day out in the summer heat.

There you have it, folks! A simple yet effective guide to keeping your footwear looking brand new all summer long. Remember, a little bit of care goes a long way in extending the life of your favorite shoes. So, grab these products from Shoelada, follow these tips, and step out in style all summer.
