But you want to wear them, they are your favourite ones. What if I tell you that it’s possible to wear your shoes much longer then you ever imagined. The secret? Cedar shoe trees.

    Cedar shoe trees (UK / EU) are seamlessly integrated into your shoes. The shoe shape remains perfect which prevents wear and counteracts the emergence of creases. The shoe trees consist of 100 procent untreated cedar wood. This will result in inclusion of moisture directly. The condition of the leather is therefore much better and less damaged. The smell of cedar is lovely. So your shoes will smell lovely as well. Enjoying your shoes for much longer, what more do you want?
