Here at TLL, we receive a lot of queries on how to remove wrinkles from leather shoes! You do not need to send your shoes to a professional leather care expert for the same. Just some simple home remedies will do the trick!

Leather shoes can add a classic touch to just about any wardrobe, but they can be costly. Once you start buying leather shoes, you want them to always look their best. When they develop creases or wrinkles that are visible, they do not look good!

Below are some simple tricks on how to remove wrinkles from leather shoes!

Step 1

Store the shoes on cedar shoe trees any time you are not wearing them. The cedar provides a pleasant counterbalance to foot odor and the smell of leather. In addition, it maintains the shape of the shoe. Leave the shoe on the shoe tree for at least two weeks to eliminate creases and retrain the shape of the leather.

Step 2

Iron the crease out. While a hot iron can be damaging to the leather, a moderately heated iron, placed on a slightly damp cloth between the leather and the iron can heat the leather enough to reshape it. As soon as you iron the crease out, place the shoe on a shoe tree and leave it there for a week to strengthen the leather’s new shape! In extreme cases of shoe creasing, a professional shoe repair shop should be considered. They unstitch the shoe upper & re-paste for the best results!

Step 3

Moisten the crease using a leather-friendly oil. Massage the oil deep into the crease line and place the shoe on a shoe tree to maintain the smooth surface while the shoe dries! Do not use strong oils, as they may stain the shoes!

Step 4

Massage the leather until the crease disappears. This is only when the crease is minor and fresh!
