Women's winter boots made of genuine leather

We list a number of advantages of leather shoes compared to shoes made of artificial leather:

Genuine leather shoes eventually wear out, as if adjusting to the foot of a particular person. Leatherette shoes are not stretched, with such shoes it is much easier to fill corns.

Despite the fact that leather shoes are more expensive than shoes made from artificial materials, this price justifies itself. Genuine leather is a durable material. Genuine leather shoes tolerate a wide range of temperatures. With proper care and observance of “operating conditions”, genuine leather boots will serve you for more than one season, while leatherette shoes become unusable much earlier than leather. Leatherette boots are generally not recommended to be worn at temperatures below −20 ...− 25 degrees Celsius.

Legs in leather shoes practically do not sweat, because air exchange is maintained. Not every shoe made of artificial materials has a similar property.

With proper care, leather boots will have a decent look throughout their life. Leatherette shoes lose their presentability pretty quickly.

In shoe fashion in recent seasons, as never before, combinations of various colors and textures are actively used, which before that could be called incompatible, for example, the futuristic design of heels or, conversely, wooden heels with boots.

Models with a wide leg are the most versatile and non-binding option, unlike styles with a narrow leg, which should pay particular attention to owners of slender legs. To determine the model of shoes, you can come to the store with an adviser - a person whose opinion you trust.

Before going to the store, inspect your wardrobe: when buying winter boots, you should take into account whether the new thing will be combined with outer clothing, and suit the rest of the style.

You should not buy model shoes for everyday wear. This is not practical, and model shoes (including those with high thin heels or patent leather) are not designed for daily use.

When buying winter leather boots, you should pay attention to the fact that leather shoes are marked in a special way: this is a label that resembles the shape of the skin in shape.

For fitting, it is better to bring socks with which to wear winter shoes. Ordering from a catalog or an online store, without risking a mistake with the choice, you can only those models that you already wore.

In shoes with thick soles it will be warmer, a grooved sole in ice will protect it from falling. When trying on, it is imperative to take into account how comfortable the shoes are, and you should not forget that leather shoes tend to wear out a little over time. A good option for winter shoes is a removable insole. This insole is easy to dry or replace if necessary. The insole should be soft enough, too hard can cause corns.

Stilettos are not recommended for longer than four hours a day. A high boot is the best choice for winter. The warmest thing will be in boots-boots, which cover not only the lower legs, but also the knees.

In such shoes, the foot will freeze, and the risk of developing arthrosis also increases. In winter boots it should be possible to move your toes a little, they should not be squeezed. But shoes should not hang on the foot either.

Boots made of a combination of different materials are difficult to maintain: leather with textile or suede trim. Each element of such shoes will require the use of different specialized care products. Light leather shoes are rather capricious: even water can stain on such boots.Delicacy and special attention and the use of special care products require patent leather shoes.

The determining factor may be the price. You can save on purchase by purchasing shoes at a seasonal sale. However, off-season selections can be significantly limited.

• For the care of leather shoes, do not use silicone-soaked sponges.
• You don’t need to wear leather boots if it’s damp, slushy or wet snow.

To avoid deformation of the shoes during drying, you should use special pads or just tightly stuff the boots with paper.

Any shoe care products should be applied only to clean and dried boots. Dirt from leather boots is removed with a soft brush and a damp cloth. Then the shoes are wiped dry. Do not wash leather shoes in the water! In case of severe contamination, specially designed products can be used to clean shoes.

Patent leather shoes require special care. When cleaning such shoes do not use brushes, only a soft cloth. In any case, you need to familiarize yourself with the shoe care instructions that the manufacturer offers, and follow the recommendations contained in it.

Wet or poorly dried leather shoes should not be worn: they can stretch out and lose their shape.

At the end of the season, leather shoes should be stored in a dry, well-ventilated area away from sunlight and heat sources. It is not recommended to store leather boots in plastic bags or plastic boxes. To do this, it is better to use fabric or special covers.
