Magnolia, Brown - The Humble Soles

We are the founders of The Humble Soles and excited to be doing ministry in the beautiful country of Nicaragua.  Ashlyn has been doing mission work in Nicaragua, for over ten years.  Gabriel was her interpreter and their life has set sail ever since!  We married and started our family in Nicaragua and have never looked back.  

With little ones going on adventures in their Humble Soles, comes wear on the leather sandals or boots!  We have created two options below for restoring your leather sandals or boots and to bring back alive the stories they tell!

How to clean and condition:  

Leather Conditioning Shinola 

You need: 2 cloth/rags, water, conditioner

1. Slightly wet your cloth.  Your goal is not for the leather to become wet, but to clean over the leather with the cloth/rag.

2. Wipe the sandal or boot with the damp cloth.

3. Use the dry cloth and dip the cloth into the conditioner.  

Think less is best!

4. Rub the leather conditioner into the sandal or boots.

You will begin to notice that the leather will become darker.  This will fade in about a week.

The more conditioner you put, the darker the leather will become.  

5.  Let the sandals or boots sit in the sun for drying.
