Cedar wood shoe trees - full protection for leather shoes

Cedarwood has a delicate citrus scent that neutralizes unpleasant odors. Additionally, the wood has the ability to absorb moisture, which is why regular use of shoe trees helps maintain leather in excellent shape and form for years to come.

Experts from the Conhpol brand recommend using shoe trees daily. During wear, the leather of the shoe constantly moves, flexes, and adjusts according to the foot's movements. The effects of this activity can manifest as creases, cracks, and folds on the leather. This is where shoe trees come into play - by filling the shoe from the inside after use, they act as a stable support for the shoe. A good shoe tree stretches the leather, snugly fills the shoe without distorting it, and gives it the desired shape. As the leather dries after wear, it returns to its original shape instead of collapsing and distorting. Well-fitted shoe trees fill and maintain the shape of the shoe without stretching the leather in any particular area. Shoe trees also prevent accidental deformations or creases in the upper. Shoes stored with shoe trees retain their form for a long time and appear much less worn than those simply left in a box.

Cedar shoe trees are made of raw, polished cedarwood, allowing them to absorb moisture from the shoe's interior. Cedarwood is naturally aromatic and absorbent, accelerating the drying process of the leather and naturally refreshing the shoe's interior. Besides basic hygiene practices, improper drying after use is the most common cause of unpleasant shoe odors. For shoe trees to effectively fulfill their function, they should fill the shoe's interior and stretch the leather to restore its original shape. In simple terms, the shoe tree should be the same size as the foot. So, if you wear a size 44, you should use a size 44 shoe tree.
