Vegan Shoe Care

Start with a soft cloth or suitable brush for cleaning. Depending on the upper, you may also need an approved cleaner, cream or protective spray. Our shoe-care collection brings together vegan tools and treatments so you can build a routine around your shoes.

Shoe care has its own ingredients and materials. A brush or cream should therefore be identified as vegan in its own right. Our collection includes plant-fibre brushes and vegan polishes, allowing you to continue your animal-free choices when caring for your shoes.

Cleaning removes dirt. Polish is intended to care for or refresh a compatible surface. Protective spray helps that surface repel moisture or dirt. Choose the step your shoes need rather than applying every product to every material.

Match the treatment to the finish: smooth microfibre, suede-like surfaces and woven textiles need different care. Check the shoe and care-product instructions together, and try an approved treatment on a discreet area first. This helps protect colour and texture.

Protective spray can improve surface repellency when suitable for the material. It does not add a waterproof membrane or seal every seam. Choose shoes with the weather protection you need, then use compatible care to maintain their surface.

Remove surface moisture and let the shoes dry naturally in a ventilated place. Avoid direct heat from radiators or a dryer unless the manufacturer expressly permits it. Regular gentle cleaning and drying are useful habits for keeping a pair in service. Read more: Guide to vegan shoes.
