Footwear Usage FAQ
Expert answers to your most common questions about footwear care and usage in India
How long should I wait between wearing the same pair of shoes?
We recommend giving your shoes 24-48 hours rest between wears, especially in India's humid climate. This allows moisture to evaporate completely and helps maintain the shoe's shape. In cities like Mumbai and Chennai where humidity is high, consider having 2-3 pairs to rotate regularly.
What's the best way to clean my shoes after daily wear?
For daily cleaning in dusty Indian cities like Delhi and Gurgaon, wipe with a dry cloth first to remove surface dirt. For leather shoes, use a slightly damp cloth followed by a dry one. For canvas shoes, a soft brush works well. Always allow shoes to air dry completely before storing.
How should I store my shoes properly?
Store shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Use shoe trees or stuff with newspaper to maintain shape. In humid cities like Kochi and Goa, consider using silica gel packets to absorb excess moisture. Avoid plastic bags which can trap moisture and cause mold.
How do I protect my shoes during monsoon season?
Apply waterproof spray before monsoon season begins. For leather shoes, use a quality leather protector. Avoid wearing expensive leather shoes during heavy rains. If shoes get wet, stuff with newspaper and let them dry naturally - never use direct heat or hair dryers as this can crack the leather.
Can extreme heat damage my shoes?
Yes, extreme heat in cities like Nagpur and Jodhpur can crack leather and melt synthetic materials. Avoid leaving shoes in cars or direct sunlight. During summer, choose breathable materials and lighter colors. Always store shoes in air-conditioned or well-ventilated areas when possible.
How do I care for shoes in air-conditioned environments?
Sudden temperature changes from hot outdoor to cold AC can cause leather to contract and crack. Allow shoes to adjust gradually. Apply leather conditioner more frequently in heavily air-conditioned offices in cities like Bangalore and Pune to prevent drying out.
My shoes feel tight in the evening. Is this normal?
Yes, feet naturally swell throughout the day, especially in hot, humid Indian weather. This is why we recommend measuring feet in the evening for the most accurate size. If shoes feel uncomfortably tight, consider going up half a size or using shoe stretchers.
One foot is larger than the other. What should I do?
This is completely normal - most people have slightly different sized feet. Always buy shoes to fit your larger foot. Use heel grips or insoles in the shoe that fits the smaller foot if needed. Our fitting experts in major cities can help you find the perfect solution.
Which materials work best in Indian climate?
For hot, humid climates like Chennai and Mumbai, choose breathable materials like canvas, mesh, or perforated leather. Full leather works well in air-conditioned environments. For monsoon season, opt for synthetic materials or treated leather with good water resistance.
How long should quality footwear last in Indian conditions?
With proper care, quality leather shoes should last 5-7 years even in harsh Indian conditions. Canvas and synthetic shoes typically last 2-3 years with regular use. Factors like frequency of wear, climate, and maintenance practices significantly impact longevity. Our repair services can extend life considerably.
