Care advice

Treat the shoes a few times a year. Don’t use to much grease at once, it’s better to apply a thin layer mutiple times. The lubricant is transparent.

We recommend leather lubricant for heavy boots and our peaked shoes. Leather grease should be used at room temperature, not heated. Dampen your shoes slightly with water and take a dollop of leather lubricant, ideally in your hands, and rub it into the leather. The reason for impregnating damp shoes is that the grease forms a protective skin without soaking into the leather.

Our products should be treated with lubricant/cream before use, and should be retreated at least twice per year. We recommend leather grease (leather lubricant) for our Sámi-style peaked shoes and other heavy boots; this is available through our webshop and catalogue. For other leather products including slippers, bags and backpacks we recommend Leather Masters leather protection cream.

Beak shoes in colors like red and black can discolor when wet. We recommend to use dark socks for new shoes.
