Cleaning: the secret to having always efficient and safe shoes

A daily cleaning routine is the first step to keeping your work shoes in tip-top condition. Here are some basic rules:

  • Remove dust and dirt with a damp cloth or soft brush.
  • Remove the insoles and let them air dry to eliminate moisture.
  • Always untie the laces before removing your shoes to avoid damaging the structure.
  • Use a toothbrush to remove debris stuck in the grooves of the sole that can compromise grip.
  • Avoid direct heat sources for drying: it is better to let the shoes dry in a ventilated environment.

By following these little tips, you can extend the life of your Technosafe work shoes and ensure maximum comfort.

Removing Stains and Odors: Effective Remedies

Safety shoes can accumulate stubborn dirt and bad odors.
Here are some effective remedies to keep them always fresh:

  • Superficial stains: Use a sponge dampened with warm water to remove light dirt.
  • Stubborn stains: Apply a small amount of white vinegar to a soft cloth and rub gently.
  • Leather shoes: use cotton wool soaked in cleansing milk to soften and clean the upper.
  • Suede shoes: Use a rubber-bristled brush to remove dirt without damaging the material.
  • Unpleasant odors: Leave your shoes out in the open air after use and use a specific shoe deodorizer.

By following these tips, you will always keep your Technosafe shoes clean and in perfect condition!

Long-term maintenance: make your Technosafe last longer

In addition to daily cleaning, some attention can make a difference in the life of your safety shoes:

  • Use a second pair of shoes: alternating two pairs of shoes reduces wear and allows for proper drying between uses, so both pairs will last much longer!
  • Avoid aggressive detergents: they could damage the materials and compromise their protective capabilities.
  • Use shoes regularly: Materials such as polyurethane age faster if not used. Alternate the use of the two pairs of shoes regularly.
