A simple way to help upgrade your leather sneakers.
We already wrote about how to act to maintain the white color of the sneakers. The life hack described below is about how to smooth the creases on leather sneakers, returning them to their almost original appearance. Caution: do not use this method for imitation leather shoes, eco leather: this can damage the material. Lifehack is only suitable for shoes made of genuine, rather thick leather.
You will need:
- paper to stuff sneakers;
- a pair of terry cotton towels;
- iron.
Step 1
Wash your sneakers and remove the laces.
Step 2
Fill the sneakers tightly with paper.
Step 3
Cover the sneakers with towels.
Turn on the iron for minimal heat and add the steam function. Walk with a steam iron over towel-covered sneakers without pushing too hard. Then let the shoes cool, remove the towels and evaluate the result. Repeat as necessary.
Done.
