Lowa shoe care instructions in a nutshell

Leather is a natural, raw material and in order to maintain its exceptional qualities, proper care is essential. Even if you aren’t going to clean the boots, it’s a good idea to remove the insole and laces, open up the boots fully, and allow them to air out after every outing.

Wash with a brush. For normal levels of dirt, brush the dirt off while running lukewarm water over the boots. For heavily soiled boots, consider gentle shoe-cleaning products.

Waterproof the leather. In order to "close" the leather’s pores, you’ll need to apply a waterproofing agent to the leather while it’s still damp. Lowa Waterstop Pro spray prevents the leather from absorbing water yet still allows it to breathe.

Maintain and protect. Regular use and cleaning wash away some of the leather’s natural oils, so it’s important to frequently apply a water-based conditioning cream to the boots, especially if they’ve had a soaking. It’s important that this be applied frequently in the forefoot and flex area, where the leather tends to be stressed. It’s fine to use a dryer on low heat to help the cream get absorbed into the leather, but be careful!

Finally, let your boots dry naturally avoiding direct sunlight or high heat. Crumpled newspaper is good for absorbing moisture and helps to retain the shape. Change these daily until the boots are dry and store your footwear in a cool and dry place.
