Care Tips
To maintain the supple leather finish and ensure its longevity, we recommend a few simple regular care routines. Proper maintenance will help preserve the striking Celeste blue colour and keep the natural materials in excellent condition.
- Clean gently: Wipe away surface dirt and dust after wear using a soft, dry cloth. For light marks on the upper, use a slightly damp cloth, taking care not to soak the material.
- Protect the finish: Apply a high-quality, invisible leather protector spray before your first wear. This helps guard the delicate light blue leather against unexpected water spots and everyday stains.
- Hydrate the leather: Treat the upper occasionally with a neutral, premium leather cream. This keeps the material soft and prevents it from drying out or cracking over time.
- Care for the sole: As this shoe features a traditional leather sole, avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain. If you do get caught in wet weather, allow the shoe to dry naturally at room temperature. Never place them near a radiator or direct heat source, as this can warp and damage the leather.
- Store carefully: Keep your sandals in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. This prevents the Celeste colour from fading and helps the shoe retain its structured silhouette.
