Step 2: Remove dirt and debris

Begin by removing any loose dust or debris from your boots with a soft brush. Be careful not to scuff the leather. Use a light soap or leather cleanser. Apply it to a damp cloth and scrub the leather in a moderate circular motion. Avoid using too much water.

Step 3: Address scuffed leather 

Scuffed leather is a typical problem that can make your leather boots appear worn out. To repair, apply a leather conditioner or cream. Apply a small amount to the scuffed area and gently rub it in with a soft cloth. For deeper scuffs, continue the technique until you get the desired outcome.

Step 5: Waterproof your boots

A leather waterproofer can help protect your shoes from water damage. This step is vital, especially if you regularly wear your shoes in rainy weather. Spray or brush the waterproofer onto the leather and let it cure completely. This will help resist water and prevent strains, increasing the boot’s life. 

Step 6: Store your boots properly

Keep your boots properly after as many people ignore their leather boot care, so keep your boots in a dry and clean space and away from direct sunshine, which will make your boot's leather fade and break.
