This is how you clean your UGG shoes in 5 simple steps

UGG shoes are known for their soft and comfortable sheepskin design, but they also require special care to stay looking good. Here are five easy steps to clean your UGG shoes and extend their life:

1. Prepare the shoes

Start by brushing away dirt and dust from the shoes with a soft brush . It is important to do this when the shoes are dry to avoid the dirt rubbing into the material. Then brush up the suede with a suede brush to stretch the fibers and give the cleaner a chance to deep clean the material.

2. Clean the shoes

Use a suede shoe cleaner along with a cleaning brush and a bowl of water. Do this:

1. Insert a shoe block into the shoe to remove the crease from the shoes.
2. Spray a thin and even layer of cleaning spray on the shoe.
3. Dip the brush into the water and scrub the shoes in circular motions, being careful not to damage the material.
4. Make sure the shoes are evenly damp and then wipe them with a cloth.

3. Let the shoes dry

Now that the shoes are clean, it is important to let the shoes dry properly to avoid stains from the washing. Before you put the shoes away to dry, it is important that you brush up the damp shoe with a suede brush.

4. Fluff up the suede

Now that the shoes have dried, the suede can be a little stiffer, we take care of that with a suede brush. Use a suede brush made of nylon and brass together with the rubber side of the suede brush to get the fluff back. Be careful not to press too hard and damage the material. Brush in several different directions.

Bonus tip : To restore the softness of the material, you can brush the shoe with a regular nylon shoe brush, this makes an incredible difference

5. Protect the shoes from dirt and water

When the shoes are completely dry, it is important to also protect them from dirt and water, here's how to do it. Spray the shoes with P-FAS free impregnation spray from a distance of approx. 25-30 cm. Here it is important that you spray an even layer and wipe off the excess before the shoes are allowed to dry properly. Repeat the process if necessary.

Extra tip: Remove bad odors

Uggs are very warm and can sometimes lead to a lot of foot sweat which then leaves a bad, sour smell in your shoes, here's how to get rid of the smell.

1. Spray the inside of the shoes with a shoe deodorant .
2. Let the shoes dry
3. Clear!

The Shoe Deodorant removes odor and kills the bacteria in the shoe, repeat regularly for best results.

With these steps you will keep your UGG shoes looking good and protected!
