Wedding Shoes Caring Tips From Expert

We get a lot of questions from our customers about how to clean wedding shoes after the big day, and we're going to discuss about it shortly. But, before we get there, many people don't realise that there are some simple measures you can take before the big day to safeguard your wedding shoes and make them much easier to clean afterwards.

It's simple not to bother: you get your shoes, try them on, and then keep them safely in their box until the wedding. You intend to protect them, but with everything else going on in the run-up to the wedding, you just don't get around to it.

We understand. Life is hectic, and nothing is more hectic than organising a wedding, especially if it is yours. However, (and this is a major one), protecting your wedding shoes before you wear them doesn't take long. You'll save so much time cleaning them later, trust us. So, for the (very) short term pain, there is a certain long-term gain :)

How To Protect

You wouldn't pay a lot of money for a new hairstyle and then go outside without an umbrella or hairspray, would you? Although not the same, leather and suede are natural materials that certainly benefit from some protection from the elements.

It's a good idea to spray your shoes with a shoe protector before wearing them. There are many in the market, and they are available either as aerosol or pump spray form. You might not be allowed to order aerosol online due to shipping restrictions, but a pump spray will suffice.

Use a pair of clean heels

The heels of shoes are one of the most extensively worn parts. These guys bear the brunt of the damage since they frequently slip into pavement cracks or sink into the grass, leaving unattractive mud marks. Of course, you may clean them, but when it comes to shoe maintenance, prevention is always better than cure.

Let us introduce you to a little but the potentially amazing product: Clean Heels! When it comes to safeguarding the heels of your wedding shoes, these slightly odd-looking things come in handy. Simply slip them over each heel, and the wide base prevents you from sinking into the ground, preventing big dirt marks on your heels-clever!

  • Other than using the products for your shoe cleaning, you can always follow some tips from us to keep your shoes clean until the wedding day.
  • Wear your shoes for a few hours before your wedding on a carpeted surface. This will provide you with maximum comfort as you walk down the aisle to meet your love and will allow our exquisite material to mould to the shape of your feet.
  • Keep the plastic sole protectors on until your wedding day morning. This will keep the soft leather soles clean and ready for photos while you're getting ready on your wedding day.
  • Please avoid walking up and down the stairs while wearing your shoes at home because the sole protectors can be slippery. We wish you a magical wedding day and would love to see images of you wearing your Avalia shoes.
  • When fastening your straps, make sure they are not too tight. When you're on your feet all day on the wedding day, your feet and ankles are likely to swell. If the ankle strap is fastened too tightly, this might result in extra stress and pressure being placed on the strap loops.
  • If the shoes seem a little tight, we recommend wearing socks with them when breaking them in. This will allow the soft shoe material to stretch a little more.
  • Don't be tempted to leave the plastic sole protector on the big day because it will cause additional harm to the soles. Especially if worn outside on wet or gravel ground.
