Shoe Care

Since 1964, we have been committed to offering shoes made from noble materials known for their quality, durability, aesthetic appeal, and comfort. The exteriors and interior linings of our shoes are primarily made from leather. This natural material is highly resilient and well-suited for daily use, but it requires regular maintenance to prolong its lifespan! Below, you will find all our care advice to keep your Jonak shoes in top condition.

The Golden Rules

As leather is originally the skin of an animal (cow, calf, goat, lamb), it requires regular and appropriate hydration, just like our skin. Just as there are different skin types, there are also different types of leather, each requiring specific care using suitable products. Proper leather care ensures that it remains intact for a long time!

Shoe size advice

If you have any doubts about your shoe size, our customer service is available at cs@jonak.ca to answer your questions! You can also find the sizing information for each model in the 'Description' section of our product pages. Remember, the ecological impact of returns is significant, so let's work together to minimize it.

First and foremost, it's completely normal not to have the same shoe size for all models. Each shoe has different characteristics: materials, length, width, toe shape, heel height, etc. This is also influenced by the shape of your foot. Depending on whether your foot is narrower or wider, it will fit differently in the shoe. Therefore, some of you may prefer your usual size, while others may choose to go up or down a size. The most important thing, beyond the size indicated on the sole, is to feel comfortable.

Keep in mind that leather is a natural material that can be softened. However, softening a shoe only affects its width. If your foot reaches the front of the shoe, even after wearing it for hours, you won't be able to increase the length. If your toes touch the front, the shoe is too small. However, if you feel tightness on the sides, on the instep, or at the toes, this can be improved by softening the leather. Here are some tips on how to stretch your shoes:
