How to Care for Leather Shoes

01 May 2026 ·4 min read

A proper care routine extends the life of your leather footwear dramatically. Here is how we do it at Naz.

Leather is a natural material that breathes, flexes and responds to care. Regular conditioning keeps the fibres supple and prevents cracking.

Step 1: Clean

Remove loose dirt with a soft brush or dry cloth before applying any product. Never use water directly on suede.

Step 2: Condition

Apply a small amount of leather conditioner with a clean cloth. Let it absorb for five minutes then buff gently.

Step 3: Polish

A thin coat of matching cream polish restores colour and adds a protective layer. Buff to a shine.

Step 4: Protect

A light spray of water-repellent protector keeps your shoes looking their best through rain and dust.
