SNEAKER CARE

GOOD LEATHER IMPROVES WITH WEAR WHEN IT IS LOOKED AFTER. THIS IS THE 1812 JOURNAL ON SNEAKER CARE: HOW TO CLEAN, PROTECT AND STORE A PAIR SO IT LASTS FOR YEARS, AND HOW TO RESOLE IT WHEN THE SOLE HAS DONE ITS WORK.

THE ROUTINE IS SIMPLE. BRUSH AFTER WEAR. PUT A SHOE TREE IN WHILE THE LEATHER IS STILL WARM, TO DRAW OUT MOISTURE AND HOLD THE SHAPE. GIVE SUEDE AND NUBUCK A PROTECTOR AND A DEDICATED BRUSH. FEED SMOOTH NAPPA WITH A NOURISHING CREAM. LET A PAIR REST FOR A DAY BETWEEN WEARS.

EVERY 1812 SNEAKER IS BUILT TO BE RESOLED. WHEN THE SOLE WEARS THROUGH, THE RESOLE SERVICE REPLACES IT AND KEEPS THE UPPER THAT HAS SHAPED ITSELF TO YOUR FOOT. THE CARE RANGE WE USE AND STOCK IS SAPHIR MÉDAILLE D'OR.
