How to Clean and Care for Leather Shoes, Sandals & Boots

We put A LOT of thought and effort into making our leather the best in the market... naturally vegetable tanned leathers with no toxins, metals or anything that you (and we) would never want next to your skin.

It is also incredibly durable and gets only better with age IF you treat it with the respect it deserves. Think about all of the dirt oil, water, and in the winter… salt (the worst!!).  

Also, if you live in a very dry, hot area, your leather will need more attention. If you clean and condition the leather on your beeks, they will be your friends for a very long time.

Vegetable tanned leather is incredibly durable, eco-friendly and gets better with age, if you take care of it properly. Here is how to make sure you get the most out of your leather shoes and sandals:

	The first step is to clean the leather. Simply wipe the surface with a very diluted mix of water and natural dish soap and allow it to dry.
	Apply a thin coat of natural conditioner with a soft cloth (we love BEESBUTTER all natural leather conditioner), rubbing it into the leather and wipe off excess with a clean cloth. The leather will darken initially but will go back to its original color when dry.
	Repeat if necessary. If the leather was really dry, you may need to repeat this process. This not only conditions the lather, but it also keeps it soft… as it was meant to be.
