It is important to give leather products special care and attention. We recommend that you apply a thin layer of leather balm to your newly purchased leather item before using it for the first time. After approximately 15 minutes, brush the dried surface to maintain its finish. Next, evenly spray a leather protector over the surface to create a barrier that resists water and dirt. Repeating this process regularly will help extend the life and quality of your item.

To keep your leather items in good condition, it is a good idea to have sneaker wipes on hand. These wipes will come in handy on days when you accidentally step in a puddle or place your bag on a dirty surface.

Following numerous trials of various leather care products on our Goatlane golf sneakers, we have discovered that Sneaker LAB's and Shoe Shame offerings produce the best results. In particular, their Sneaker Kit and Sneaker Wipes are excellent for leather shoes.

We suggest that you visit a local cobbler to purchase a leather balm, which is suitable for all your leather goods, including shoes, bags, and small accessories.

It's important to remember that suede requires the same level of care and attention as leather, even though it may not require any creams or balms. The same procedure applies: begin by using a suede brush to restore the nap and maintain the finish in good condition. Then, apply a suede protector evenly over the surface to create a barrier that resists water and dirt. Repeating this process regularly will help extend the life and quality of your item.

Keep in mind that suede has a velvet-like texture and is more delicate than leather, making it more susceptible to stains.

Cleaning the white, beige, or grey soles on Goatlane shoes can be a challenge, but there is a process that can help. Begin by using a damp cloth to remove any excess dirt from the soles. If stains remain, use a toothbrush and soapy water to scrub the soles, making sure to reach all the hard-to-reach areas. Avoid scrubbing the outer edges of the soles to prevent altering the look of the rubber or damaging the leather upper.

Once you are satisfied with the cleaning result, use a cloth to dry off the soles.

We advise against waiting too long to clean the soles of your shoes, as dirt will settle deeper, making the cleaning process more challenging.

Our leather and suede shoes are waterproof. Our knit collection is water-resistant.

Always use shoe tree. Keeps your Goatlane in its proper shape so it dries out correctly, and keeps the leather from cracking by wicking away moisture. The absorbent wood also helps dry out the lining of shoes so that they don’t rot from the inside out.
