Now that your boots are clean, repaired, and fresh it’s time to pack them up for storage. Packing plays an important role in the shape retention, cleanliness, and safety of your shoes. Start with filling the vent with tissue paper so that the shape of your boot is retained throughout the summer. Cover your shoes with cotton sheets and then pack them up in plastic bags. Make sure that the plastic bag is not air-tight to prevent moisture trapping. Moisture-trapping can cause damage to your boots.
