From young to mature men's shoes maintenance methods are here.
However, the so-called people look at the shoes first, in fact, shoes are also an important part of the overall shape. Therefore, in addition to the maintenance of clothing, a pair of clean shoes is also extremely necessary.
For fashion men, there may be a pair of shoes that will always be with you at your feet, but there is no single pair of shoes in your shoe. Faced with a variety of shoes, they also have their own characteristics, workmanship, materials are also different, so of course there are different methods in the maintenance of the problem.
Today, Xiaobian introduces different cleaning methods for different shoes:
Suede shoes
First of all, bring you the most interesting seasonal shoes - suede shoes. Indeed, the delicate fur lines of the suede shoes bloom under the sunlight, and the other shoes do not have the luster, and they are suitable for different wearing styles, especially with the suit suit.
However, the delicate fur will also cause trouble for everyone. The main reason why many people choose to give up their suede shoes is that it is too difficult to maintain. Elvis has once sang: "You can do anything, just don't touch my blue suede shoes." Suede shoes are notoriously fragile, not only easy to scratch, scratch, stain, but also not easy to clean It is no wonder that many people will feel the same lyrics of Elvis Presley.
There are different ways of nursing for different shoe injuries. In general, suede shoes mainly have three problems: dust, scratches and stains. Next we will introduce the corresponding solutions:
tool
Before you do this, you must first select the right tool. The leather is soft and soft. When cleaning, use a special brush. Generally use the soft brush we often say. If you buy a suede shoe with instructions for care, follow the manufacturer's recommendations.
There is a little bit of a small point. I believe everyone knows the truth: the suede material should not be stained with water. When handling dust and scratches, be sure to keep it dry.
Dust removal
Use a soft brush to gently brush the dust on the surface of the shoe. Do not brush it back and forth while brushing. Repeat the brush along the texture of the fur in the same direction, so that the texture of the upper will not be messy and lost. The original luster of the leather upper.
Repair scratches
For the scratch problem, the damage to the suede shoes is even more serious. When the suede shoes are scratched, the surface fluff will fall in one direction. Don't worry, just use a little force and brush with a soft brush to pick up the fluff.
Scratches and stains that cannot be removed by the brush can be removed with a special suede cleaning eraser. Remember to use a little force. If the scratches are too deep, you can also use a knife to gently scrape and puff the fluff. (Hands don't try!)
Remove stain
Water stain
For the definition of stains, there are different concepts for different products. For example, for other shoes, water is a good cleaning tool, but it is quite deadly for suede shoes.
Unlike cleaning other stains, first wet the surface of the shoe when removing water stains. After the soft brush is stained with water, gently brush the stain on the upper to remove the original dirt.
Use a sponge or a dry towel (the towel here is recommended to use a towel to wipe the car) to absorb excess water. Use a sponge or towel to gently press the surface of the shoe until there are no more visible water spots on it.
After cleaning, you can put a shoe support or a paper ball in the shoe, which not only can absorb excess water, but also ensure the shape of the upper.
After drying in a cool place, remember to use a dry soft brush to re-brush along the upper texture to ensure that the texture of the stain is consistent with other parts.
Grease
Oil stains are also the most common stains in our lives. When cleaning the grease, first use a soft brush to remove the floating dust on the surface of the shoe, then use a nail polish brush to wash the warm water to remove the stubborn stains.
If the oil stains are not dry, you can use corn starch to remove them. Sprinkle some cornstarch on the stain and let it go overnight. Brush the corn starch the next day, then steam it with an iron.
However, the oil stains are particularly difficult to remove, and if you can't brush them, there is no way.
mud
There is also a common stain in life - mud. To remove the mud, you must first wait for the mud to dry, otherwise it will only enlarge the contaminated area and increase the difficulty of cleaning.
Wipe off the excess mud first, but don't press too hard when rubbing, then put it in the sun to dry. After the mud has dried out, the mud can be peeled off by hand and then the residual soil is removed with a soft brush.
In the case of preservation, if it is left unused for a long time, wrap the suede shoes with a dry paper mold and put it in the shoe box. Store in a way that is protected from light and moisture. The skin is prone to mildew in a humid environment, and strong light can cause the skin to fade.
Work boots
For tooling shoes, in fact, Xiaobian personally will not deliberately clean him, personally think that the more old scratches, the more tooling boots look more flavorful. But still introduce the cleaning method of the tooling boots.
The current tooling boots are generally made of leather material, so the two brushes of hard and soft hair are prepared first, the soft brush is used to remove the floating dust on the upper, and the hard brush is used to remove the gravel and dust of the sole. . For better performance, you can also wipe the groove of the sole with a cotton swab until all dirt has been removed.
As for the cleaning of the upper, in addition to the dust removal mentioned above, it can also be wiped with a wet tissue or a wet towel to remove the stain on the upper. If the water is still not clean, you can also add baking soda.
Finally, as soon as the ventilation is dry, it can be dried normally. But for the red-wing type of oil skin style, don't forget to apply the leather shoe care cream, let the upper absorb the oil of the shoe polish slightly, so that the upper is shiny.
sneakers
In addition to the above two very masculine shoes, many men also choose the trend to wear the route, then a pair of sneakers may be indispensable equipment.
Sneakers are generally divided into suede, patent leather and leather uppers. The suede style can be cleaned as mentioned above.
As for the patent leather and leather styles, it is also necessary to use two brushes of soft and bristles, the soft hair is used to clean the upper, and the bristles are used to remove dirt and gravel from the sole.
However, in the cleaning of the upper, it should be more detailed. Usually, a proper amount of cleaning liquid is added to the soft brush of the water. Use the brush tip to clean the upper and brush it back and forth or in a circular motion to achieve the foaming effect.
Then wipe with a absorbent towel (still recommended for car towels) to remove foam and excess moisture from the upper. The shoes can be air-dried in a cool and ventilated place, and the shoes should not be placed directly under the scorching sun. The direct sunlight will make the shoes yellow and degummed, even the leather surface cracked.
If it is idle for a long time, the shoes are stored in the same way as the suede shoes, and even they can be sealed with a plastic film to slow down the oxidation rate.
As for the maintenance of the shoes, the old drivers have eaten more salt than the small series, and Xiaobian will not introduce them.
