TIPS TO LAST A LIFE TIME

Well crafted footwear deserves considered care. With the right attention, quality shoes will not only maintain their appearance, but improve with age, developing character, comfort, and longevity over time.

At Embassy London, our footwear is crafted from a range of fine leathers, each requiring specific care to preserve its natural qualities. This guide offers practical advice and essential tips to help protect, condition, and maintain your footwear, ensuring they continue to look and perform at their best for many years to come.

Whether worn occasionally or every day, proper care is the foundation of lasting footwear.

Embassy London Footwear Care
Smooth Leather

SMOOTH LEATHER

Our smooth leather pieces are crafted to age beautifully with proper care. We recommend gently wiping your leather with a soft, dry cloth after each wear.

For deeper cleaning, use a dedicated leather cleaner, and always test on a small, inconspicuous area first. Avoid prolonged exposure to water, direct sunlight, or heat, as this may dry out or discolor the leather.

Store your leather items in a cool, dry place, preferably in a breathable dust bag, to maintain their shape and finish. Regular conditioning with a high-quality leather conditioner will help keep your leather nourished, soft, and long-lasting.

SUEDE & NUBUCK

Suede and nubuck are delicate, textured leathers that require careful attention to maintain their soft, luxurious finish.

We recommend gently brushing your items with a suede brush after each wear to remove dust and prevent dirt from embedding.

For light stains, a suede or nubuck eraser can be used carefully, always testing first on a hidden area. Avoid contact with water, oils, or harsh cleaning products, as these can mark or stain the material.

Store your suede and nubuck items in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, and ideally in a breathable dust bag to preserve their shape and texture. Regular brushing and occasional professional cleaning will help keep your pieces looking soft, vibrant, and long lasting.

PATENT LEATHER

Patent leather is a glossy, coated leather that is known for its sleek, polished finish.

To maintain its shine, gently wipe your items with a soft, damp cloth after each wear, removing dust and light marks. Avoid abrasive materials or harsh cleaners that could scratch or dull the surface. For scuffs, use a patent leather cleaner or conditioner, testing first on a discreet area.

Store your patent leather items in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight or heat, and keep them in a dust bag to prevent scratches. Regular care and careful handling will help preserve the glossy finish long lasting.

PRINTED LEATHER

Printed or patterned leather is delicate and requires careful handling to preserve both the texture and the design.

To maintain the appearance, gently wipe your items with a soft, dry cloth after each wear, avoiding abrasive materials or harsh cleaners that could damage the print.

Do not use water or chemical solutions directly on the surface, as this may cause fading or smudging.

Store printed leather in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight or heat, and ideally in a breathable dust bag to prevent creasing or rubbing. Handle with care and avoid friction with rough surfaces to ensure the print remains vibrant and your pieces retain their original elegance over time.
