Taking care of the upper and leather soles is an important part of protecting the longevity and integrity of handcrafted luxury shoes. Shoes made in Italy, or shoes with leather soles, can last for years, but only if treated with care. It is important to note that an upper made of natural materials such as leather cannot last forever and that leather soles must be replaced at some point for the same reasons. Wearing shoes for too long on a worn sole can cause permanent damage to the shoe and also decrease its comfort. While there is no set rule for how regularly you should resole your Italian leather shoes (amount of wear, type of wear, water damage, and gait are all factors), a variety of signs help you know when it's time for a quick visit to your local shoemaker. Here are the main signs that your leather shoes need to be replaced 1. Uneven wear of the sole. Everyone walks differently and one of the joys of owning leather-soled shoes is watching how your shoes evolve according to your natural movements. Something to watch out for, however, is uneven wear. While it might be interesting to learn that you are favoring the outside of your feet, this type of uneven wear can diminish leather soles over time. Once you start to notice that the wear is becoming more and more noticeable, it's time for a resoling. If the shoe upper starts to come off the soles, it's time for a resoling. Sole breakage is caused by a variety of factors including rubbing of the toes, water damage, and even trying to dry shoes near a direct heat source (such as a home radiator). 2. Damage caused by water. This may not be a big deal for rubber-soled shoes or shoes with non-Italian mass-produced "leather effect" soles, while true luxury leather soles are susceptible to water damage. Even if being surprised by a light rain once or twice is not the end of the world, repeated exposure to water will affect the integrity of the soles and can irrevocably damage leather shoes. If you get caught out in the rain, make sure your shoes are dry enough before wearing them again. Remember to dry them naturally, with the soles facing up and away from any direct or strong heat sources. You can also choose to apply a thin rubber patch to the soles to help with extra protection - we recommend this is best practice for any Rangoni shoe you intend to wear on wet, wet days. Rangoni women's shoes are made with precious and high quality materials, which age magnificently over time with the right care and attention. After receiving your shoes, please refer to the care card included in the shoe box for specific care instructions. The more you take care of your shoes, the longer they will last. You just have to take care of them every few...
