Fortunately, this shoe care secret will help you make a better one.
Yet what is the secret of always having impeccable shoes? It’s simple, by keeping them clean!

STEP 2:
– Air Dry
The weather can be an unpredictable pain at times, which means your shoes could get soaked by the rain one day. If this ever happens, do not leave your shoes to dry by a heater or with something like a hairdryer, as the heat from these items can make the leather crack. Simply stuff your shoes with some newspaper and just leave them to air-dry. the mud is dried, it becomes easier to remove.

STEP 3:
– Brush off the dirt and infection
Scrape the dry mud off the shoes and brush off all the dirt and debris with a shoe brush. You can also use an old toothbrush and some soap solution to scrub away the fungus. Ensure that you brush even the smallest crevices to remove all traces.

STEP 4:
– Pay attention to the insides of shoes
Rub or clean off as much dirt as possible with a cloth. Place a sheet of tissue paper or a paper napkin within the shoe and leave it for a few minutes. Repeat the process to dry out the shoe completely. Post this, sprinkle some talcum powder to absorb any lingering moisture.
