We recommend treating your new shoes with the special shoe care wax before your first use and every now and then in order to maintain them in good shape. After you treat them initially, they will become more resistant to external damages. They will get softer and shape up to your feet easier.

However, you should bear in mind that swing dancing can make your shoes prone to scuffs and scratches and this can often be unavoidable. Our shoes are not bulletproof but if you follow the polish routine described below you can reduce the risk of getting severe damage on your new foxes.

Step 1: Grab the special ointment and apply a small amount on a clean soft cloth.

Step 2: Using the tip of your fingers to move the cloth apply a thin layer of the ointment doing circular moves.

Step 3: For best results wait for a day or two for the product to soak in and then polish with a soft brush or a woolen cloth.

Repeat the procedure every couple of weeks to maintain your shoes in good shape.
