Rain Protection: How to Save Shoes and Clothes in Autumn

According to The Sun: Autumn has already arrived, along with the rain and wind.

To ensure that your favorite raincoats and shoes go through this season without damage, it is enough to take a few simple measures to make them look like new.

NECESSARY PROTECTION

PROOF IT: Use a waterproof spray to protect your shoes and outerwear from adverse weather conditions.

Spray easily on clean, dry surfaces from about 15 cm away, paying particular attention to seams.

Before using the spray, test it on an inconspicuous area to check its suitability for the material. For instance, the DASCO protection spray is available at Shoe Zone for £3.99.

SUEDE CARE

SUEDE SAVIOUR: Suede items have become popular this season, but they are very sensitive to water stains.

You need to act quickly.

If you find yourself caught in the rain with suede boots, let them dry away from direct heat, and then clean them with a suede brush or a clean soft toothbrush to gently remove stains.

For black suede, Sneaky Suede Revive is recommended, which usually costs £4.99 and is now available for £2.49 on amazon.co.uk, to restore faded suede.

CARE FOR SNEAKERS

STEP UP: Sneakers take the most wear and tear, but simple care can help keep them clean.

After wet walks, stuff your sneakers with crumpled paper to absorb moisture from the inside and maintain their shape.

For deep cleaning, remove the insoles and wash them separately. A quick wipe with a damp cloth and a few drops of detergent can tackle dirt before it dries.

PROPER STORAGE

SMART STORAGE: Never put wet raincoats straight into a tight wardrobe, as they may develop a musty smell.

Instead, hang them on sturdy hangers with padding and allow them to dry properly.

It may be useful to buy a dehumidifier Status at Poundland for £1 to place at the bottom of the wardrobe to prevent moisture buildup.
