Of course, stains can form over time through use. But don’t worry, we’ll help you with our tips here too. Depending on the type of leather, accessories such as a brush, a polishing cloth, a nubuck box, a sponge or a soft eraser are required for cleaning. With the help of a cleaning foam or a cleaning lotion, the individual areas can then be treated according to the instructions. If there is an unpleasant smell, you can also use a shoe scent spray.
