Professional Shoe Care Products For Everyone

By Aimee Schwartz


Some shoes hardly have a scuff and can be cleaned and maintained at home with very little effort. Others are made with sensitive materials or need a little more care. That is when it is prudent to use professional shoe care products for all your care and cleaning needs.

Your new kicks are going to get dirty or even muddy at some point, no matter how careful you try to be. This is why cleaning is so important in the care process. While some shoes might be safe to toss into the laundry machine, most will require special cleansers like the kind professionals use. Make sure to buy for your type and shoe material, and especially be sure to follow the cleaning instructions on the package.

You should regularly polish your shoes to give your look a finished, high-end appearance that cleaning alone just won't do. To do this properly, buy a good brush with bristles that don't scratch but still stand up to the task at hand. Pair the brush with a good quality polish that won't damage the delicate material.

Depending on the weather in your area, waterproofing your shoes might be a good idea. People who work in damp environments will also find this to be a good idea. Several of these pro products are available widely that prevent water from permeating your shoes to keep your feet dry in case you accidentally slip in a puddle or get caught in a rainstorm. Not only do they keep your feet dry, but they also help guard against stains and water damage to your shoes' material.

Shoe stretchers are another great tool for those shoes that pinch your toes a little bit. There are many sizes of stretchers and many are adjustable in both their length and width. These generally come in both men and women's sizes, and some even come as a package with some stretching fluid that helps get the job done even faster and with more accuracy.

Scuffs are unsightly and can ruin the overall look of any outfit you pair those shoes with. Scuffs and fading usually occur in the heels and toes, but you can combat them with special dyes. Buy a professional dye that is made for the specific shoe material you need. Choose from several varieties and colors to get the perfect match, ensuring your kicks look as good as new with a single treatment.

Suede shoes are beautiful to look at and feel, but they are also very persnickety when it comes to care. The same goes for nubuck, which is similar to suede. There are special cleaners and tools that professionals use to care specifically for these types of shoes so that you get as much life out of them as possible.

With proper care, a quality pair of shoes could last for years or even decades. Consider using the same tools as the pros to keep your kicks looking new. Doing this is a great investment that will save you lots of money in the long run.
