Care guide
Keep the repair earning its keep
A good fix lasts longer when you treat heat, dust, and sudden wet with a little discipline. This is the sheet we wish every pair left with.
Leather in Gharbia
- Brush dust before it grinds into the grain
- Condition lightly — heavy cream softens structure in heat
- Dry wet shoes with paper inside, away from direct sun
- Rotate pairs; daily identical wear fails faster
- Wipe road film before it becomes permanent stain maps
Sneakers & rubber
- Wipe salt and mud before it cakes in the midsole
- Avoid washing machines — they kill glue lines
- Replace flattened insoles instead of forcing worn foam
- Catch toe peels early — small rebonds stay small
- Do not store damp pairs in sealed plastic bags
Habit beats product
When to return to the bench
Clicking heels, a soft spot under the ball of the foot, a seam opening more than a centimeter, or a sneaker cage lifting at the toe — those are early warnings. Waiting until the upper collapses turns a tip job into a rebuild.
Early visits cost less than late ones.
Ask before it tears
After a resole
Give new bonds a calm first day. Avoid standing in puddles for the first 24 hours when we say the cement is still settling. Then walk them in — repairs are meant for miles, not shelves.
