What are 6 common sense practices that should be practiced before caring for leather shoes?

Points to keep in mind before caring for leather shoes (2) “Use a shoehorn when putting on your shoes!

Shoehorns are often treated as “handy to have” to make shoes easier to put on. However, the original purpose of a shoehorn is to prevent shoes from breaking when putting them on, and it is no exaggeration to say that it is a must-have item for anyone who wears leather shoes. The heel of the shoe has a built-in “moon-shaped core,” which not only holds the heel of the foot firmly in place, but also has the important mission of maintaining the shoe’s beautiful silhouette. If this part is damaged, the appearance and longevity of leather shoes will be greatly affected, so it is important to protect it. The rule of thumb is to use a shoehorn every time you put on your leather shoes, rather than trying to force them on by hand.

It is recommended to have a portable shoehorn!

It is of course a good idea to keep a pair of shoehorns at home, but in Japan, where there are many opportunities to take shoes on and off, it is also a good idea to have a portable shoehorn. Even if there is no shoehorn in the place where you take off your shoes, you can quickly take it out of your bag and make a smart impression. And if you are going to buy a shoehorn, it would be chic to get a high-quality one that can be used for a long time.
