We begin the restoration process by cleaning your loafers. Our cleaning and care artisans will clean the whole shoe internally and externally with a mild detergent specific for the material.
With the clean complete, our restoration artisans will identify a part of the shoe where the colour is as close to the original as possible. We use this area as a reference to hand mix and match pigment that will be used to restore your shoes. We begin by using specialist leather filler to repair scuffs, tears or scrapes. Once complete, the pigment is applied in thin layers evenly across the affected area.
To finish, a protective coating is be applied to prevent colour loss and ensure the adhesion of the pigment to the leather. The finish is adjusted to match the shine of the original item.
