Caring for your shoes:
Leather is a natural product and will discolour over time. To enhance the lifespan of your Green Cross shoes, it is important to take car of them and follow our instructions below:

• • Wear your shoes frequently. Green Cross shoes are made for walking.
• • Do not wear the same pair of shoes every day.
• • Avoid environments where oils, chemicals and solvents are present.
• • Regularly clean and polish your leather uppers with leather cleaner and polish.
• • Remove dirt by wiping with a soft brush or slightly damp (not wet) cloth.
• • Never use harsh cleaning agents on our shoes. These chemicals destroy the natural leather.
• • Do not soak or submerge shoes in water.
• • Allow damp shoes to dry naturally at room temperature. Do not put them near a direct heat source.

Caring for different leathers:
Colour variations or slight imperfections are the hallmarks of genuine leather.

 

Full Grain Leather

• • Ensure that the selected polish matches the upper colour.
• • Neutral shoe creams/polishes should be used for light coloured leather.
• • Apply evenly in small amounts and buff with a clean, dry lint-free cloth or buffing crush.

 

Suede and Nubuck Leather

• • Protect new shoes before the first wear with suede and nubuck protector.
• • Remove surface dirt with a soft brush.
• • Some stains may be removed using a suitable suede or nubuck cleaner.
• • Certain cleaners may darken the colour of the upper. Test on a small area first.
• • A soft brush can be used to restore and raise the nap of the leather.
• • Avoid spilling oily liquid onto the nubuck leather as this will permanently damage it.

 

Waxy and Oily Leather

• • Use specifically formulated shoe creams for oily and waxy leather. Apply with a clean, dry lint-free cloth.
• • Do not use liquid polish as these leathers have been specifically treated with waxes and oils to give optimum suppleness, comfort and authenticity.
• • Scratches may easily occur but in most cases can be removed in most cases by gently rubbing the surface area.

 

High Shine and Patent Leather

• • Do not use a buffing brush.
• • Wipe and buff with a clean lint-free cloth.

 

Metallic Leather and Synthetic Finishes

• • Wipe with a clean cloth moistened only with water.
• • Gently rub with a dry cloth to return to a shiny finish.
