step 2 - polish
Always keep a fresh coat of polish, cream, or moisturizer on
your footwear. Even our hands tend to dry and crack when
exposed to excess moisture. Think of leather in the same
way, except leather no longer has the ability to produce
natural oils, which would otherwise keep it moist and
supple. Cream polish will penetrate deeper into the grain of
leather, while wax tends to coat the surface, lasting longer
with a brighter shine. We recommend cream for softer leather
and wax for more ridged leather. Polish should be applied
when the leather begins to look dull or feels dry to the
touch. Eventually, you may begin to see a streaking,
flaking, or blotchiness on the upper. This means the polish
has clogged the pores of the leather and caked. Remedy: An
application of polish remover then simply reapply a fresh
coat of polish.
