Lama leather

Lama is a tumbled calf leather characterised for its comfort and softness.

Description
Care

Despite its name, lama is still a calf leather. The pattern of the skin is produced by shrinking this material during the tanning process. Tumbled leather is generally top grain leather that has been spun in a machine with a bunch of small stones. This process loosens the fibres, brings out the leather’s natural grain and gives it a soft, semi-sheen surface. It is a very comfortable skin that is used both for loafers and for ladies shoes.

Lama shoecare

We recommend periodic shoeshining routines to preserve shine and colour. Generally, polishing shoes every two to three weeks should be enough if you are giving your footwear a moderate use.

Firstly, insert your shoetrees and brush your shoes to remove any dirt or dust.
Apply a very small amount of cream all over the shoes. We recommend using Carmina creams since they have been specially formulated for our different lama calf colours. Our creams will restore colour and shine. You can also use a slightly darker shade if you would prefer creating burnishing effects.
Once your cream has rested and absorbed, brush your shoes to remove excess.
You can then proceed to apply your matching colour wax; this will give your shoes are lovely shine finish. Dab your cotton chamois and rub the wax in circular motions through your shoes. Let the wax set for a few minutes and brush.
