Shoe care helps maintain a good appearance, durability, and resistance to different weather conditions. Below are some practical tips.
Shoes made from smooth leather:
Occasionally wipe them with a damp cloth, which may include a drop of mild dishwashing liquid.
Clean shoes can be treated with a thin layer of colourless cream or leather balm, which should then be gently rubbed into the smooth leather using a dry cloth. When applying a new product, always test it on a less visible area before treating the entire surface.
Shoes made from suede, nubuck and brushed leather:
If dry and muddy, brush them with a suitable suede brush.
Occasionally wipe them with a damp cloth, which may include a drop of mild dishwashing liquid.
Once clean, apply a colourless waterproofing spray suitable for footwear.
For all Proalp shoes please also note:
Allow wet shoes to dry naturally in a shaded, well-ventilated area or indoors, away from direct heat sources.
Never soak them in water or wash them in a washing machine.
If desired, during the off-season you can stuff them with crumpled absorbent paper (e.g. newspaper) to help maintain their shape.
How often should be shoes cleaned and maintained?
Everyone has their own preferences, but we recommend cleaning and caring for your shoes a few times per season.
Ordered items that are in stock are dispatched within two working days of placing the order. For items that are not in stock, the average lead time is extended by approximately three working days. If the delivery time is further extended, we will notify you accordingly.

Natural sheep’s wool in Proalp shoes
At Proalp, we use natural sheep’s wool from Slovenian sheep to produce linings and insoles for our shoes. Every step of the production process is carried out with great care to ensure the wool retains all its natural and beneficial properties.
The main characteristic of sheep’s wool is lanolin, a natural wool wax secreted by the sheep’s sebaceous glands. Its composition is very similar to sebum produced by human skin. Lanolin provides natural protection for the wool – it helps prevent the growth of micro-organisms, repels mites, and creates a dry, healthy environment inside the shoe.
In the wool we use, lanolin is non-allergenic, as all potentially allergenic lanolin alcohols are removed during the natural washing process.
One of the greatest advantages of wool is its hollow fibre structure. This natural property allows wool to regulate temperature and absorb excess moisture without creating a feeling of dampness. Simple airing is enough to refresh and clean the wool.
