Usage tips
In order to preserve shoes it is necessary to use them in a proper way. In PATALETAS we want all our customers to be satisfied. Accordingly, we want to give you some advice so that you can keep your shoes in good condition.
- 1-Do not wet shoes too much, since they are made of natural materials and the fact of wetting them may cause wear and tear of shoes.
- 2-In the event that they get wet, we recommend leaving them dry outdoors, without using heat devices such as hair-dryers, radiators or heaters...
- 3-Nourish shoes with natural creams so that they do not lose leather’s softness and hydration. When it is about SUEDE or DOWNY shoes, it is recommended to brush them with a soft brush and always in the same direction.
- 4-Do not polish them with abrasive nor corrosive products.
- 5-Choose the right Pataletas for each differnte occasion.
In Pataletas we manufacture comfortable shoes both for children and for their mummies. Therefore we add absorbent insoles with micro massage, treated with anti-bacterial products and removable for an easy drying in shoes targeted to the little and the naughtiest ones.
