Our instructions on how to clean men’s polo boots:

• Dampen the softest cloth that you can find into a bowl of lukewarm, clean water. Wipe away any obvious dust, dirt or other build-up on the polo boots with the soft cloth.

 

• Now you need to make a cleaning solution to help get the rest of the dirt off. The best solution we have found is to mix equal parts of white vinegar and lukewarm, clean water. Dampen a different soft cloth with this solution and carefully dab in onto the Polo boot to remove any stains. Take a dampened rag, and go over the polo boots with fresh water to remove any residue of the vinegar as this must be cleaned thoroughly.

 

• Apply a professional leather cleaner for any stubborn stains on the polo boots that are refusing to come out. All of these products are available at leather and shoe retailers. These products work very well to penetrate into the leather polo boots and remove tough stains. Wipe it on carefully in thin layers with a soft cloth.

 

• Allow the polo boots to air dry away from direct heat sources such as radiators or heat blowers. The direct heat can make the leather dry out and crack. Ruining the look of your boots.

 

• The last and the most important step. Whenever you strip or wash leather it is essential that you put moisture back into the polo boots. The easiest way to do this is to condition the boots with leather conditioner or mink oil. Only do this when the boots are completely dry. The best technique is to rub the conditioning oil into the leather polo boots with a soft cloth. Be sure to wipe away any excess conditioner with a clean, soft cloth. After all the excess oil is removed, buff with the same cloth to obtain a polished look. Again it is important to let the boots air dry and not put them need a heated source at this point.
