Clean your leather shoes after use. Rub off as much dirt and grime as you can with a clean, dry cloth. Always use a soft cloth that doesn't scratch the leather. Never dump water on it, as it could penetrate the leather and cause stains and spots. Aim to clean your shoes after each wear or at least before the following day. Simply give them a light wipe down using a brush and soft cloth to restore the shine. Never try to clean the leather with any product containing chemicals that can be aggressive to your ALOHAS because that would damage them. Instead, try cleaning them with a wet cloth or polishing them with a bit of moisturizer on the cloth.
A regular polishing or conditioning routine is vital for keeping leather shoes in good condition. Conditioning helps moisturize the leather. As it dries out, it can crack, leading to damaged shoes. Use a clean cloth to rub the conditioner in small circular movements. Remove any excess conditioner once you've conditioned the entire shoe. It is advised that you always patch test a new leather care product on an inconspicuous area of the leather before applying it all over, as some products may alter the color and/or texture of the leather in a way you are not happy with.
The leathers used by Alohas are totally natural; they have no chemicals or aggressive products that can soften or deteriorate the product, therefore, getting them wet is not recommended. If your shoes get wet, stuff them with a small towel and let them dry naturally, away from a direct heat source. Don't forget that shoes should only be cleaned when they are completely dry. Allow them to dry at room temperature; avoid leaving them near a source of heat, as this will harden the leather.
