Quick answer

To keep your Sunset Glow Sandal 105 straps sparkling, use a soft, dry cloth to gently wipe the leather and crystal brooch after each wear, and store the sandals in a dust bag away from direct sunlight.

Why the straps need special care

The Sunset Glow Sandal 105 features a brooch with gold metal and rhinestones, plus multiple leather straps. The contrast between delicate metal details and soft leather means each material needs a different cleaning approach to avoid tarnishing or staining.

Step-by-step care for sparkling straps

  1. 1. Wipe after every wear: Use a soft, lint-free microfiber cloth to gently wipe the leather straps and the brooch. This removes dust, body oils, and moisture that can dull the finish. Do not use wet wipes or alcohol-based cleaners—they can damage the leather and loosen rhinestones.
  2. 2. Clean the brooch separately: Dampen a cotton swab with a tiny amount of distilled water and gently dab the rhinestones and gold metal. Dry immediately with a second dry swab. Never submerge the brooch or soak the straps. Water trapped under the stones can cause tarnishing.
  3. 3. Condition the leather straps: Apply a small drop of clear, silicone-free leather conditioner to a soft cloth and rub it into the straps in circular motions. Let it absorb for 10 minutes, then buff with a clean cloth. Avoid conditioner near the brooch—it can cloud the rhinestones or leave a residue on the metal.
  4. 4. Store correctly: Place each sandal in its original dust bag or a soft pouch. Store them flat in a shoebox away from direct sunlight, heat, and humidity. Do not stack other shoes on top—pressure can bend the brooch or scratch the rhinestones.
  5. 5. Handle stains promptly: For a small spot on the leather, dab the area with a barely damp cloth and mild saddle soap. Blot, don't rub, and let air dry completely before wearing. If the stain is near the brooch, take the sandals to a professional cleaner who works with embellished footwear.
