So you have suede cowboy boots. Whether you love suede cowboy boots or was given one by a friend. How does one take care of them? Here are a few tips and tricks you might want to know to care for your suede cowboy boots the right way.
Make sure that they are stored in a place where they can breathe. It would also be best to store them away from sunlight because this will make the color fade. Damp places should also be avoided for storage.
If it suddenly rained and you are wearing your suede cowboy boots, it would be best to pat it dry with a clean towel and then let it dry in a cool place. When it is already completely dry, you should use a suede brush to restore its raised fibers.
Suede is a wonderful material but it needs to be cared for if you want it to last for a very long time. Another important thing is for you to buy suede boots protector. These are usually silicon-based products that protect the surface of the boots. These products can be bought in your local department store. They are usually in the form of sprays. All you have to do is spray some of it on the surface of your suede boots and let it dry manually. Do not speed up the drying process by using heat from a hairdryer or any other item that uses heat to dry certain items because this will only make the suede hard and maybe even worse, crack.
Once you have used silicon spray on your boots, it will be protected from watermarks. However, it will not completely protect it from water damage so make sure that you do not wear these boots in the rain or in snow.
