3. During the scrubbing process, do not soak the entire frosted leather shoes in the solution, and do not dip too much solution.

4. When the surface of the frosted leather shoes is clean, wipe the surface with clean water and place them in a ventilated place to dry!

After cleaning and drying:

1. To apply frosted shoe polish, use a brush dipped in emulsified oil and apply it evenly on the semi-dry suede surface. Try to let the oil penetrate into the leather as much as possible, so that the maintenance effect will be better.

2. Place the matte leather shoes coated with shoe polish in a ventilated place. After 30 minutes, brush off the floating oil with clean warm water and then place them in a cool place to dry.

3. After it is completely dry, the suede on the surface of the matte leather shoes may be too sticky. At this time, you can use a wire brush or coarse sandpaper to brush the suede surface to make the suede reappear, and then comb it with a brush.

Daily maintenance tips:

Method 1: Shoe polish maintenance

It is best to oil the frosted leather shoes for maintenance every once in a while. Specifically, wait until the frosted leather shoes are half dry after washing, use a brush with grease or emulsified oil, and brush it evenly on the frosted leather shoes. Use about 100 grams of shoe polish for a pair of shoes. Be careful when brushing, clean the entire shoe surface, and let the shoe polish penetrate into the leather. After half an hour, brush off the excess oil on the shoe surface and let it dry thoroughly.

Method 2: Shoe powder maintenance

The color of matte leather shoes will fade and look old easily if worn for a long time. At this time, you can use special shoe powder for maintenance. The choice of shoe powder should be the same as the original color of the shoes. When applying shoe powder, apply it evenly on the frosted surface. Then just brush off the excess shoe powder and your nubuck shoes will look brand new.

Daily maintenance precautions:

1. When wearing frosted leather shoes, avoid them coming into contact with hard objects, and it is best not to wear them on rainy days. Because matte leather shoes are not easily exposed to dirty water, and they are difficult to clean once they are dirty. It is recommended to gently brush the suede surface with a brush first, then wipe off the dirty areas with a damp cloth, and wait until it is dry before wearing.

2. Regarding the maintenance of matte leather shoes after they become hairy, you can gently comb them along the texture of the hair with a brush to restore them.
