This process causes no environmental damage. This is due to the fact that no harmful chemicals or solvents are used during production.

To ensure that your patent leather shoes maintain their luster and last for years, follow these care tips:
Durability
Contrary to popular belief, patent leather is not delicate. It’s a durable material that can withstand the rigors of regular wear. With proper care, a high quality pair men’s leather patent shoes can last for many years.
Easy to Clean
Wipe your shoes with a damp cloth after each wear to remove dust and dirt. The glossy surface of patent leather makes it easy to clean and maintain. A quick wipe with a damp cloth can remove most scuffs and stains, keeping your shoes looking impeccable. For stubborn stains, use a leather cleaner specifically designed for patent leather.
Polishing
Periodically, apply a patent leather-specific shoe polish to maintain the shine. Avoid using traditional wax-based polishes, as they can dull the glossy finish.
Storage
Store patent leather correctly to prolong its lifespan and avoid any cracks or brittle patches. Patent leather is a type of leather that is treated with a special compound that makes it glossy and durable. Keeping it in cool dry conditions prevents it from cracking or becoming brittle. While avoiding direct sunlight exposure will keep the colour vibrant.
