I’m always surprised when someone asks how to take care of their new boots and slippers. We use the same kind of materials that any good shoe manufacturer uses. So:
Polish with a good quality wax or cream polish and buff. If you have an unusual color, a neutral color wax will give the shoe protection.
If you will be wearing them in situations where water or snow will be an issue, spray on a waterproof protector.
To keep the insides nice, wear hose or socks if it fits your persona. If not consider a thin terry cloth or fabric covered insert that can be taken out and cleaned. When it gets nasty, toss and replace it. If you do a lot of off-roading in them, clean the dirt and grass out of them paying attention to the edges. The debris will work it’s way under the insole and break down the glue.
Use shoe and boot trees. The Container Store and Bed Bath and Beyond both carry an assortment. Boot trees are also called boot shapers. They adjust to keep the tops of your boots looking their best. If you have tall ones, you can stack two in the boot. Stack boot trees on top of a shoe tree at the bottom so the boot stands on it’s own. Some shapers come with a hanger so you can hang them on a closet pole.
If they need new soles, any good shoe repair shop can resole them.
Hi – very great website you have made. I enjoyed reading this posting. I did want to publish a comment to tell you that the design of this site is very aesthetically sweet. I used to be a graphic designer, now I am a copy editor for a marketing firm. I have always enjoyed working with information processing systems and am trying to learn code in my spare time (which there is never enough of lol).
I am glad that I ran into your site on Yahoo. I really enjoyed your article. If you are interested in swapping links with each other’s sites, let me know. I’d love to get on each other’s blogrolls. Here is my site: Lose The Back Pain Scam.
You blog entry definitely was one of the best points of my Saturday. I was on Bing searching for something totally unrelated when the title caught my attention. I’m glad I took the time to read your blog! Feel free to comment on my blog at The Tweet Tank Review!
I’m new to this but will figure out how to add the link and will be happy to do so
I really enjoyed this post, especially the
Nice blog ! I’ve spent a long time in looking for a large calf winter shoes for my wife.Visit to see
Wow, have you guys seen this?…
I bumped into another great read that I had to share….
We can get the unsheared leather and make a custom boot to fit your wife. The cost for an mid calf Ugg style boot would be $285 plus shipping. to insure a fit, we would sent the boot without the finished sole for a fitting. We can then make any necessary adjustments and finish them. Right now pour production time is 6 weeks. If you go to the website, and click on the order button it will download the measurement instructions and all the order and contact information. To give you an idea of how that type of proportion will look, check the KB8 boot under the knee high boot section of the catalog. While the style is period, the proportion problem is the same. I appreciate you’re asking and hope to be able to help.
I thought it was set up to do that. I’ve passed the problem along to the person who understands and solves these issues for me. He’d like to know what the error message was. He’s been unable to duplicate it.

Hi,I’m taking some time to write you a comment. I hope you don’t mind I’ve bookmarked your page, your article is genuinely usefull for me. Kim x
Very nice blog post I love your website carry on the good articles
Thanks for writing about this. There’s a lot of solid tech information on the internet. You’ve got a lot of that info here on your web site. I’m impressed – I try to keep a couple blogs pretty up-to-date, but it’s a struggle sometimes. You’ve done a great job with this one. How do you do it?
Super-Duper web page! I am loving it!! Will arrive back again – taking you feeds also, Thanks.
i have three that I do as well. I actually keep little note books around the house and in my purse and every time a subject occurs to me for any one of them I make a note. The notes all go into folders next to my computer and when I sit down to type, I have a choice of subjects. I also tear things out of magazines and file that stuff as well. Thanks for the note.
Hi, maybe i’m being a bit off topic here, but I was browsing your site and it looks stimulating. I’m authoring a blog and trying to make it look neat, but everytime I touch it I mess something up. Did you design the blog yourself? Could someone with little experience do it, and add updates without messing it up? Anyways, good information on here, very useful.
It’s Wordpress and the Atahualpa template. It’s very customizable and easy to update. Computers are alien creatures to me (the electric typewriter was the hot technology when I was in college) and I manage it fairly well. I can put you in touch with the man who helped me set it up and link it to the social network stuff. He works long distance.
