5 Tips To Take Care Of Your Footwear During Monsoon 

1. Don’t Dry Your Footwear In The AC

Contrary to your belief that the AC will dry up your footwear, it doesn’t…Place it under the fan or in some place that is breezy, where it can dry up naturally. 

When you return home after being caught in a monsoon shower, dry your shoes completely before you put them back into your shoe rack. Otherwise your feet may be susceptible to infections when you wear them again on some other day. But how should you dry them? Definitely not in the AC. Contrary to your belief that the AC will dry up your footwear, it doesn’t. Your footwear remains damp, irrespective of how long you keep your shoes near it. Place it under the fan or in some place that is breezy, where it can dry up naturally. 

2. Clean Your Footwear Regularly

Remove mud and dirt from your footwear frequently to make them last long. Because dirt adversely affects the texture and quality of your shoes over time.

Remove mud and dirt from your footwear frequently to make them last long. Because dirt adversely affects the texture and quality of your shoes over time. Isn’t that what you want from your favourite pairs? Use a toothbrush or scrub brush to scrape the dirt off footwear like sneakers. You can even clean your white sneakers with toothpaste using a toothbrush. But remember to wipe the toothpaste off with a clean, damp cloth immediately after. 

3. Save Your Footwear From Moisture

…excess moisture tends to result in a build-up of fungus and other germs that can wreak havoc to your footwear. So, ensure that your shoe rack is moisture-resistant.

It’s a challenge to maintain footwear that you haven’t worn for long. Despite you keeping them clean every now and then. This is because the excess moisture tends to result in a build-up of fungus and other germs that can wreak havoc to your footwear. So, ensure that your shoe rack is moisture-resistant. Or, even better, wrap each of your pairs in a piece of newspaper or tissue paper for them to soak the moisture and keep your footwear dry at all times.

4. Keep A Dehumidifier Handy

If you feel your footwear closet is damp, you should invest in a dehumidifier to act as a supplement to the newspapers or tissue papers.

It will further help you in absorbing humidity from your shoes, keeping them away from getting ruined by fungus during these monsoon months. What’s more, a lot of dehumidifiers give out a mild fragrance, eliminating bad odour from shoes, which is so typical to this season. So, say ‘hi’ to shoes that smell fresh even in this season.

5. Invest In A Wax Polish
