In order for shoes to serve for years, you need to not only choose high-quality products and wear them carefully, but also store them correctly.
This is especially true in cases where the couple is put away in a closet for six months or a similar period.
When it's time to take out winter shoes again, some owners face a problem: the products have become deformed or have acquired an unpleasant odor.
Winter shoes
Spring is the time to put away your warm sneakers and boots and put away your boots and other footwear intended for winter.
Leaving them on the shelf is not recommended, as they will take up space and gather dust. But they should not be sent for storage just anywhere.
Subtleties of storage
First, winter shoes need to be washed and cleaned. It is better to remove dust, sand and other dirt immediately after the end of the season, so that next fall or winter you can get a beautiful and neat pair.
To keep your shoes from losing their shape and getting a musty smell by the new season, you need to do a few simple steps. Here's what you need to do:
- place special shoe trees inside the shoe or stuff it with thick dry paper. For example, newspaper;
- for each pair, select a box with holes for ventilation;
- Keep away from radiators and other heat sources. Cold is also not welcome.
Experts do not recommend storing shoes in plastic bags.
