Preservation The
working life of the sandals can be greatly extended by applications
of leather dressing, such as GE-WY or Dubbin, every few months.
Follow the manufacturer's instructions, and apply the dressing
to both sides of the leather straps. With the adjustable strap
styles temporarily move the main and heels straps to reach those
sections normally hidden. Leather dressing is usually available
at saddlers and leather merchants.
Moisture Like
most leather footwear, Kix sandals
should be protected from moisture. Salt water is particularly harmful
and can result in a chalky, salty substance appearing on the leather.
If they do get wet, they should be thoroughly dried and treated with
leather dressing.
