Before you place shoes into their proper storage containers, make sure they are clean. Stock a shoe kit with everything you'll need for regular maintenance. There are a few must-have supplies: a suede soap or leather cleaner for cleaning shoes; shoe creams and polish in the most common colors of your leather shoes plus a neutral for hard-to-match colors; a suede brush and suede shampoo or cleaning liquid; a small application brush for every different color of polish or cream; two horsehair buffing brushes (one for dark colors, one for light); and several soft flannel or cotton cloths for the final buffing.
