Hi guys,
It is clear that every style aficionado owns at least a pair of shoe trees to keep his leather shoes in shape.
However, lots of men neglect this important aspect of shoe care yet complain when their shoes break down quickly.
Now of course, The shoe longevity depends initially on the leather and craftsmanship quality. Nevertheless, the way your treat your shoes is just as important.
Shoe care includes among others using a hydrating cream regularly, never wearing the same shoe for two consecutive days and letting the leather rest and get rid of moisture by inserting a shoe tree inside of it.
Using a shoe tree also depends on the price of your leather shoe (which is OFTEN a good indicator of its quality) . It would be unnecessary if not useless to buy a shoe tree for a cheap dress shoe, because chances are, they'll wear so quickly you'll never see any positive effect.
I'd love you to share your opinions on the matter. How long have been using shoe trees and at what extent do you think they've been helpful to keep your shoes in shape ? What are your preferred brands?
