CARE
To clean smooth leather footwear, remove all dirt and debris from the footwear surface using a damp cloth. For embedded dirt, use Bickmore Bick 1 Leather Cleaner, applying a small amount to a slightly damp cloth and gently rubbing the footwear surface in a circular motion. Allow your dress leather footwear to dry in a naturally ventilated room. For best results, follow up with Bickmore Bick 4 Leather Conditioner to rehydrate the footwear leather. To cover scuffs on a colored, finished leather, use a matching-colored shoe polish. Post-cleaning, apply Trade Street Water Repellent Spray for additional water and stain protection.
