Tradigo’s Guide to Caring for Shoe Materials

“Beauty will save the world.” – Fyodor Dostoevsky

Caring for shoe materials

Originally made to protect feet from rough ground, shoes have become much more: expressions of style, status and personality. They are companions on our journeys, precious works of art and instruments of self-expression. As Cinderella knew, a pair of shoes can change a life and leave a lasting impression.

Caring for shoes preserves their shape and extends their life, but it is also a distinctive gesture that reflects elegance.

Tradigo offers a complete range for every need: foam and gel cleaners, restorative lotions, hard wax and cream polishes, waterproofing treatments, stretchers, dyes and more. Every material deserves tailored care.

Smooth leather

Clean deeply with water-based foam cleaners. Nourish with wax emulsions enriched with beeswax and carnauba, the “queen of waxes”. Apply polish in thin layers using circular movements. For a bright finish, buff with soft natural-hair brushes, using a separate brush for each colour to preserve the original shade.
