Using shoe care products correctly: Why shoe care is so important
Our shoes accompany us day after day – in rain, sun, wind or snow. They are exposed to countless external influences that can severely stress the material and appearance. Regular shoe care keeps the material supple, protects against moisture and extends the lifespan. Care is especially important for delicate materials such as smooth leather or buckskin, as it nourishes the leather and prevents cracks. Regular care not only extends the life of your leather shoes, it also preserves their colour and lustre.
Shoes should be cared for regularly, especially during the wet season. Rain, snow and grit affect them severely. It is also worth applying a first coat of waterproofing to new shoes to give them optimal protection against moisture and dirt. Remember: well-cared-for shoes are a statement of quality and style.
Cleaning products for shoes: the first step
Cleaning is the first step in any care process – an often underestimated but crucial step. Dirt such as mud, dust or stains can attack materials and impair the care result. Cleaning ensures that care products can be optimally absorbed and that the material can breathe.
What cleaning products are available for shoes?
There is a suitable shoe cleaner for every material. Here are a few examples from our range:
- Shoe cleaners for leather such as Multi Clean remove stubborn dirt and stains.
- Dry cleaners such as Clean Box are particularly suitable for suede shoes and textiles, as they clean gently without damaging the material.
- Special products such as Carbon MaxX Midsole Cleaner are ideal for cleaning trainers and effortlessly remove dirt from the sole edges.
Regular cleaning helps to prevent premature wear and tear and ensures that your shoes look like new for longer. Cleaning is particularly important for suede shoes, as dirt and moisture can stick the delicate fibres together. With the right care, the colours can be refreshed and the shoes restored to their original appearance.
Shoe care products: shine and protection for every type of shoe
After cleaning comes care – the heart of shoe care. Whether smooth leather, imitation leather or suede – each material needs a different care product to remain beautiful for a long time. High-quality shoe care products are therefore indispensable.
Here are a few recommendations from us for caring for shoes depending on the type of leather:
- For smooth leather, care creams such as Bio Leather Balm are ideal for keeping the leather supple and refreshing the colour.
- For imitation leather, we recommend Organic Cream, which has been specially developed for synthetic materials.
- For suede shoes, there are products such as Nubuck + Textile Spray, which intensifies the colours and protects the material.
The right care maintains the elasticity of the material, protects against cracks and ensures that leather shoes retain their elegant appearance. It's also easy to refresh suede with special care products – the material remains soft and the colours retain their intensity. Regular care extends the life of your shoes and saves money in the long term.
Waterproofing sprays and protective products for your shoes
Even the best shoes are not invulnerable if they are not sufficiently protected. A good shoe impregnation forms an invisible barrier that repels dirt and water and maintains the breathability of the material. Impregnation is particularly important for leather or suede shoes.
Which impregnation products are available in our range?
- The Carbon Pro waterproofing spray offers extreme protection for all materials and is highly breathable at the same time.
- The Premium Protector is ideal for textiles and protects against rain and snow.
Tips for waterproofing shoes:
Spray the waterproofing spray for shoes onto the cleaned surface from a distance of about 20 cm. Repeat every few weeks depending on use. This will keep your shoes dry and clean even in bad weather.
Shoe deodorisers: products to combat bad odours
Unpleasant odours in shoes can seriously affect how comfortable they are to wear. A good shoe deodorant can help. Products such as Breeze Spray neutralise odours and leave a pleasant scent.
Odours are caused by bacteria and moisture. A shoe deodorant spray not only eliminates unpleasant odours, but also helps to prevent them from developing. This is particularly important for sports and barefoot shoes.
Shoe care accessories: the right helpers for perfect results
Even the best care products are ineffective without the right tools. Shoe brushes and shoe care sets are indispensable aids for perfect care.
Recommended shoe care accessories from the BÄR range:
- horsehair polishing brushes give smooth leather shoes a radiant shine.
- brushes for suede raise the fibres and remove dirt.
- A shoe care set provides everything you need to take care of your shoes when you're out and about.
With the right accessories, shoe care is not only easier but also more effective. Brushes and cloths help to distribute the products evenly and achieve the best results.
Stretch spray for shoes: when shoes pinch
New leather shoes can often be uncomfortable – this is where special products such as Stretch Dehnspray or Stretch Classic Foam come in, making the leather stretchy. These products ensure that pressure points quickly disappear.
Stretch your shoes before pressure points or blisters develop. Targeted application ensures maximum comfort.
Shoe care for barefoot shoes
Barefoot shoes are not just a statement for healthy walking, but also an investment in comfort and well-being. To ensure that they retain their unique properties such as flexibility, breathability and natural fit in the long term, particularly careful care is essential. Caring for barefoot shoes means cleaning them regularly, protecting them from moisture and keeping the material supple.
To meet the special requirements of barefoot shoes, BÄR offers a range of high-quality shoe care products:
- Cleaning: Multi Clean is ideal for gently and effectively cleaning your shoes without damaging the delicate material. It thoroughly removes dirt and leaves your shoes smelling fresh and clean.
- Protection: Waterproofing sprays such as Premium Protector shield your barefoot shoes from rain, snow and dirt. The spray maintains the breathability of the material, keeping your feet dry even in adverse conditions.
- Care: Natural products such as our organic leather balm are ideal for caring for smooth leather barefoot shoes. They keep the material supple and give it a pleasant feel. Our organic cream is an excellent alternative for textiles or synthetic materials.
Tips for caring for your BÄR barefoot shoes
- Clean your shoes regularly, especially after rain or if they become heavily soiled, to avoid stains and discolouration.
- Impregnate new barefoot shoes before you wear them for the first time and repeat this step as needed.
- Regularly care for the leather so that it stays supple and does not become brittle. Products such as the organic leather balm penetrate deep into the material and provide long-lasting care.
With the right care, your BÄR barefoot shoes will not only remain functional but will also look great. Discover the right care products in the BÄR range and ensure that your shoes last a long time.
