What are some tips for cleaning nubuck shoes?

In daily life, we often come into contact with matte leather. For example, many mobile phone cases are now matte. In addition, many shoes, both men's and women's, are made of matte leather. The so-called matte leather is polished on the basis of the original leather. In comparison, the surface of matte leather is rougher. Many people especially like to wear matte leather shoes, and the cleaning of this kind of shoes is very particular.

Tips for cleaning frosted leather shoes:

1. When cleaning matte shoes, you can use a soft-bristled brush to gently wipe away the stains. Be careful to wipe in the same direction to make the texture smooth, but avoid applying oil. Use 2 parts of detergent, 1 part of vinegar, and 50 parts of water (temperature 30-40°C) to make a cleaning solution. Dip a shoe brush in the solution and carefully scrub the surface of the leather shoes.

2. Be careful not to immerse the shoes in the solution when scrubbing, and try not to let the leather shoes be soaked in too much solution. After the surface of the leather shoes is basically clean, wash and wipe the surface of the leather shoes with clean water 1 to 2 times, and place the shoes in a cool and ventilated place until they are half dry.

3. When adding oil, use a brush to evenly apply leather fatliquor or emulsified oil (which can be obtained from the tannery, with the oil content controlled at 50-60%) on the washed and semi-dried suede surface. The amount used is about 100 grams per pair of shoes. During the application process, be careful to allow the oil to penetrate the skin as much as possible.

4. After leaving it for 30 minutes, use 35℃ clean water to brush off the floating oil on the surface of the shoes, and place the shoes in a cool and ventilated place to dry thoroughly. When finishing, after the suede leather shoes are completely dry, use a wire brush or coarse sandpaper to brush the surface to restore the suede, and then brush it with a brush. After the above process, the suede shoes will be like new shoes.

1. Nubuck Leather Bag:

Before dry cleaning the frosted leather bag, use fine sandpaper to polish the contaminated parts, then spray the dry cleaning additive on the parts, and then go through a series of procedures such as greasing, softening, drying, and ironing. The method introduced here is a more professional cleaning method. If the matte leather turns black and discolored, it requires more care processes. It is not recommended for individuals to clean it themselves and needs to be sent to a specialized care shop for cleaning.

This bag is really no different from other bags. If it is stained, it will easily fade if you wash it yourself. If it is just a small stain, you can use a soft cloth dipped in warm water and wipe it gently. Don't use too much force.

There is another little method, but it is only for those small stains. You can use a soft cloth dipped in warm water and a little bit of toothpaste, wipe it gently, then wipe it clean with warm water, and then wait for it to dry on its own. However, this method cannot be used multiple times in the same place, otherwise the color will become lighter and lighter.
