Metallic leather
Metallic shoes – we just love them. The sheen exudes a touch of luxury, while the leather provides all the comfort we expect in a Wolky shoe. What you don’t want is for your shoes to lose that metallic shine. We explain how to care for these shoes below.
Taking care of metallic leather
Metallic shoes – we just love them. The sheen exudes a touch of luxury, while the leather provides all the comfort we expect in a Wolky shoe: they mould themselves beautifully to the foot and they’re breathable but they still add a touch of chic to any outfit. So the last thing we want is for metallic shoes to quickly lose their shine. It is therefore very important to care for metallic leather properly.
Extend the life of your metallic shoes with the following tips.
Prevent
Prevention is better than cure. This may be a time-worn tip, but it is especially true of metallic leather. Protect your metallic shoes by treating them with care. They are very sensitive to scuffing and scratching. Once your shoes are scuffed, it is very difficult to get rid of the marks. So watch out for kerbs and other sources of abrasion!
Care
Keep metallic leather supple by spraying it. We recommend the Wolky All Protect spray or the Carbon Pro spray. Holding the shoes 30 cm away, spray and allow to dry for 30 minutes. When the sheen on your shoes starts to dull, it’s time to spray!
Clean
Leather has a top coat which prevents dirt from penetrating deep down. That’s a big plus! So all you generally need to do is to clean your metallic shoes with a soft, clean cloth. Wipe the dirt off your shoes and the shine will be back in no time.
Tip: Don’t use a hard brush! As we mentioned, metallic leather is delicate. A hard brush can scratch the surface, and that’s precisely what we want to avoid. A soft cloth will do the job nicely.
