5 Ways You're RUINING Your Shoes (And How To Fix Them)
About this video
Weston and her husband Dorian outline five common mistakes men make that damage their shoes and provide solutions for each. They cover maintaining shoe structure with trees, conditioning leather, cleaning sneakers regularly, using shoe horns to protect shoe backs, and managing odor with cedar products.
Key takeaways
- Weston recommends using cedar shoe trees to maintain shoe structure and prevent creases from setting in permanently
- Weston advises conditioning leather shoes 1-2 times per year to keep the leather supple and extend the shoe’s lifespan
- Weston argues that using a shoe horn—preferably a longer one—is essential to avoid crushing and creasing the back of shoes during wear
