Men's Brown Woven Patina Double Monk Strap

These men’s shoes with a buckle have a sophisticated design of woven calf leather, which is the one thing that makes them one step ahead of the traditional monk straps. The pair has a double buckle closure, which is gracefully positioned over an old saddle strap, providing the straps with structure and personality. The leather is treated with a patina effect in deep brown and green colours, where the depth of colour is rich and hand finished, giving each shoe individuality. The lining and cushion insole are made of soft calf leather, making it comfortable inside, while the leather sole provides a sleek and durable profile. Step-by-Step: How to Clean Exotic Leather Shoes When it comes to exotic leather, the most important thing is to be careful. This is truly essential when learning how to care for exotic leather shoes, because while certain damage can still be repaired or covered on other types of leather, with exotic leather this is almost impossible. That is why everything should be chosen carefully, from special care products to the brush. But let’s go through all the steps in order. Step 1: Remove Dry Dust In the first step, you need to remove dry dirt so that when you later use cleaning products, the dust does not turn into mud and damage the leather. Use a soft, lint-free dry cloth and gently clean the surface of the shoes. If the leather has scales, make sure to move in their direction; otherwise, you may damage them. Step 2: Use a Soft Brush If the dirt does not come off completely, use a special brush with soft bristles that will not scratch the leather. Use the brush in a dry state as well, cleaning slowly and carefully the hard-to-reach areas such as the seams, the upper edge of the sole, and similar parts. Step 3: Apply Specialized Products Once you are sure that the shoes have been cleaned of dry dirt and dust, it is time to move on to specialized products. Remember that exotic shoes should not be cleaned with products that are not specifically designed for that type of leather. For example, exotic leather should not be treated with sprays intended for standard leather or suede. Each type of exotic leather has its own specialized care products: crocodile leather requires one type of treatment, ostrich leather another, while the care routine may also vary depending on whether the leather is dyed or left in its natural finish. All of these products have very different compositions, which may help in one case but cause damage in another. This stage of cleaning is very important, as these products not only clean but also create a protective layer on the leather. Most of these sprays and creams also provide a water-resistant effect, offering additional protection for the shoes. Step 4: Natural Drying After applying the products, the leather becomes slightly damp, and it is very important to allow it to dry naturally. Do not wear the shoes immediately after cleaning, do not place them under direct sunlight, and especially do not put them near heating devices to speed up the drying process. The leather should dry naturally, so place the shoes in a warm area of the house and leave them. If the leather has become very wet, you may need to wait a few days. Otherwise, it will usually be ready to wear again within a day. Leather 100% Colour: brown
