Care

How can I take care of my Marco Proietti brand products?

SMOOTH OR GARNET LEATHERS

All smooth or garnet leathers should be cleaned with a dry, clean and soft cloth to remove dust and excess dirt. To revive the color apply a small amount of neutral wax-based shoe polish and polish with a soft cloth. Avoid direct contact with alcohol-containing products (perfumes, solvents), oils (make-up) and abrasive substances. Avoid direct exposure to sunlight and heat. Do not expose to moisture, and in case of direct contact with water, allow to dry carefully in a cool, well-ventilated place. Always store your shoes in the two separate dust bags provided inside the package.

PATENT AND LAMINATED LEATHERS

Clean with a dry, clean and soft cloth to remove dust and excess dirt. Patent leathers are highly sensitive to color transfer; for this reason we recommend to carefully avoid contact with other materials. Always store your shoes in the two separate dust bags provided inside the package. The metallic finish on laminated leathers is extremely delicate and can easily be scraped off. Once it has been damaged it cannot be returned to its original appearance. This is not considered to be a defect, but a characteristic of the material. Avoid direct contact with alcohol-containing products (perfumes, solvents), oils (make-up) and abrasive substances. Avoid direct exposure to sunlight and heat. Do not expose to moisture, and in case of direct contact with water, allow to dry carefully in a cool, well-ventilated place.

SUEDE

Use a soft bristle brush to gently clean the leather and maintain the peculiar characteristics of suede. Where necessary, use a colorless waterproof spray for shoes to protect the leather from moisture, always applying it to dry shoes. Suede is highly absorbent and can get stained easily; for this reason we recommend to carefully avoid contact with other materials that may bleed. Avoid direct contact with alcohol-containing products (perfumes, solvents), oils (make-up) and abrasive substances. Avoid direct exposure to sunlight and heat. Do not expose to moisture, and in case of direct contact with water, allow to dry carefully in a cool, well-ventilated place.

FABRICS

All fabrics used in making Marco Proietti shoes are delicate and must be treated with care. Use only a dry, soft cloth to remove dust and avoid solvents. Avoid, especially on silk satin fabrics, excessive abrasion and any contact with rough surfaces, as the threads of the fabric once damaged cannot be restored. Some particularly delicate fabrics may have slight creases when flexed: this is not considered to be a defect, but a characteristic of the material.

COMBINATION OF MATERIALS

For shoes made from a combination of two or more materials, please refer to the following instructions:

FABRICS: Clean with a dry and soft cloth and avoid solvents. Avoid excessive abrasion and any contact with rough surfaces, as the threads of the fabric once damaged cannot be restored.

SMOOTH OR GARNET LEATHER: Clean with a dry, clean and soft cloth. To revive the color apply a small amount of neutral wax-based shoe polish and polish with a soft cloth being careful not to touch any other materials.

PATENT AND LAMINATED LEATHERS: Clean with a dry, clean and soft cloth. Avoid all type of solvents.

SUEDE: Use a soft bristle brush to gently clean the leather and maintain the peculiar characteristics of suede. Where necessary, use a colorless waterproof spray for shoes to protect the leather from moisture, always applying it to dry shoes.

CRISTAL INSERTS AND ACCESSORIES WITH LEATHER AND FABRIC COMBINATIONS

The crystals and studs applied on Marco Proietti shoes are delicate accessories and must be handled with extreme care. Clean with a soft, velvety cloth and avoid contact with surfaces or materials that could scratch or damage them. Also avoid direct contact with water, solvents, as well as direct exposure to sunlight and/or heat. Always store your shoes in the two separate dust bags provided inside the package.

RECIOUS AND SEMI-PRECIOUS LEATHERS WITH COMBINATIONS OF LEATHERS

All exotic, precious and semi-precious materials are extremely delicate and require careful attention. Clean with a dry, clean and soft cloth to remove dust and excess dirt. Do not apply any type of substance that could damage the tanning of leathers. Atmospheric conditions, heat and use could raise the scales of precious materials: these are peculiar characteristics of exotic materials and are not to be considered defects. Avoid direct exposure to sunlight, heat, and moisture.

Sizes

Our sizes conform to the common size systems; however in case of doubt, please refer to our shoe size chart.
