Nubuck Shoe Care Guide: How to Clean & Protect Nubuck Leather

Nubuck shoes offer a premium, velvety finish that looks sophisticated but requires proper care to maintain their soft texture and colour. Unlike full-grain leather, nubuck is sanded to create a fine nap, making it more susceptible to dirt, stains, and moisture. Follow this step-by-step guide to keep your nubuck shoes in excellent condition.

1. Brush Off Surface Dirt & Dust

A nubuck brush is the best tool for keeping your shoes looking fresh. We recommend using a Carthcart Elliot Nubuck Brush, specially designed for delicate cleaning.

• Start with the rubber side: Gently rub the surface in a circular motion to lift dirt and dust.
• Use the bristle side for deeper cleaning: Lightly brush in the same direction as the nap to remove stubborn grime and restore texture.

✅ Pair your nubuck brush with a set of cedar shoe trees to maintain the shape of your shoes.

2. Removing Stains from Nubuck

For Light Stains & Scuffs:

• Use a nubuck rubber fingered eraser/brush (or a clean pencil eraser) to gently rub away small marks.
• Avoid excessive pressure to prevent damage to the nap.

For Water Stains:

• Dampen a clean microfiber cloth with a small amount of water and gently rub the entire shoe to prevent water spots.
• Stuff the shoes with cedar shoe trees and allow them to air dry naturally (never use a radiator or direct heat).

For Oil or Grease Stains:

• Sprinkle cornstarch or talcum powder over the stain and leave it overnight to absorb the grease.
• The next day, brush the area gently with a nubuck brush.

✅ A nubuck eraser and microfiber cloth are must-haves for a complete nubuck care kit.

3. Protect with a Nubuck Protector Spray

To keep your nubuck shoes looking their best and shield them from stains, use a nubuck protector spray:

• Hold the spray about 20cm away and apply an even coat.
• Allow to dry for a few hours before wearing.
• Reapply every few weeks or after exposure to rain.

✅ A nubuck protector spray is essential—combine it with a nubuck brush for the best long-term care.

4. Restoring & Maintaining the Nap

Over time, nubuck can appear flattened or shiny. To restore its soft, matte finish:

• Brush with a nubuck brush to lift the nap after cleaning.
• Steam your shoes lightly by holding them above a kettle or using a steam iron from a safe distance to soften the fibres, making them easier to restore.

✅ Using a shoe horn prevents excessive creasing at the heel, helping to maintain the structure of your nubuck shoes.

5. Proper Storage & Long-Term Care

• Store your nubuck shoes in a breathable cotton shoe bag to prevent dust buildup.
• Keep them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
• Insert cedar wood shoe trees to absorb moisture and maintain their shape.

✅ Cotton shoe bags and cedar shoe trees help prolong the life of nubuck shoes.
