After the surface of the sheepskin is processed, it will show a two-color effect. After wearing, the skin will naturally discolor and produce a natural phenomenon of changeable clouds, which makes people dream about the changing nature.

Because many people know too little about the characteristics of rubbing sheepskin, they often think that the leather surface is easy to discolor and misunderstand the quality problem compared with common leather materials. In the process of wearing the sheepskin, natural discoloration is normal and will not fall off in a large area. But if you don't pay attention to it, it will easily cause serious local discoloration.

After wearing it a few times, polish the sheepskin shoes when the luster of the surface drops and then apply the shoe polish; do not use multifunctional shoe polish for the care of the shoe polish. This kind of shoe polish has detergent ingredients that can easily cause discoloration.

The surface of the varnish leather is bright and smooth, and the leather fiber layer contains oil, so the leather body feels soft. It is also called horse oil leather, but it is not a horse skin but a local homonym.

The advantages of varnish are bright colors and strong texture. The boot surface of the varnish leather material has the effect of natural wrinkle and discoloration, and it is normal to have different color and luster in various parts. Like clouds in the sky, you can't find the same color. Lacquer leather care is more convenient. You can wipe it with a soft dry cloth. Leather cleaner is more effective, but you cannot use shoe polish or brightener.
