Care for premium smooth/waxed leather - clean with Renapur leather cleaner, allow to dry naturally away from any direct heat source. Apply Renapur Leather Balsam to replenish and treat the leather, this can be applied with the Renapur leather brush. On lighter leathers, this will darken the colour initially but this will lighten again as it dries and soaks into the leather.

Care for suede/nubuck leathers - Use Renapur Suede & Fabric protector before wearing for the first time. For cleaning, use Renapur Leather Cleaner and once dried, treat again with the suede and fabric protector

It is always recommended that any shoe care product being used is applied to a small hidden area before applying to the whole shoe to check you are happy with the finish after applying it.
