You can increase it by keeping it clean and keeping it in a safe area. Me, I do not walk as everyday, sometimes I ride a public vehicle so that I can take care of my shoes.

One thing that will help is you can take your shoes off at home. Another thing is to match your shoes to the terrain that you will be using them in. For example wear your most durable, tough pair of shoes in outdoor, off-road rocky conditions such as when you go hiking. And wear your less-tough shoes to your office job.

1. Clean and condition your shoes regularly. Cleaning your shoes regularly will help keep them looking new and prevent dirt buildup, which can cause them to wear down more quickly. Use a damp cloth to wipe away dirt, then use a cleaner and conditioner suitable for the material your shoes are made of.

2. Avoid getting your shoes wet. Water can damage the material of your shoes and cause them to deteriorate faster. If you must wear your shoes in wet conditions, consider using waterproofing sprays or waxes to help protect them.

3. Rotate your shoes. Wearing the same pair of shoes every day will cause them to wear down faster. Consider having two pairs if you can, and alternate between them daily.

4. Replace worn soles. If the soles of your shoes start to show signs of wear and tear, consider replacing them with new ones. This will help extend the life of your shoes and make them more comfortable to wear.

5. Store your shoes properly. After wearing your shoes, allow them to dry naturally, away from direct sunlight and heat. Store them in a dry, cool place and stuff them with newspaper to help keep their shape.

If you want to increase the durability of your shoes, there are a few simple steps you can take. First, use a quality leather protectant or water-repellent spray to help keep your shoes safe from the elements. Second, rotate your shoe collection so that each pair gets an equal amount of wear, thus allowing each shoe to last longer. Lastly, store your shoes in a dry place and make sure they are kept away from any kind of heat or direct sunlight. Following these steps should help to keep your shoes in good condition for a longer period of time.

First and foremost when buying shoes check whether its leather and the rubber type.

Consider the weather.Most of the shoes tore off during the rainy season.If you're outside and its raining wait first till its over and the run off water has reduced.

Consider where you're walking. Avoid the thorny places and places full of rocks.Walking in such places recklessily tores down the shoes faster.

Finally keep your shoes in good condition by polishing them each day.This way the shoes will not look old even if you wear them for 2 or 3 years.

You can increase your shoes durability by following these simple rules:

1. When not in use always keep them in a box.

2. Whenever you are going to wear them, always clean them with a cloth and then polish them well.

3. Water should not reach to the shoes. Contact with water reduces the durability.

4. Always wear formal shoes for only plain surfaces and clean surfaces. Wear sports shoes only for mountainous & rocky terrains, muddy and thorny places.

1. Use a shoe horn so you don't crush the back edge when inserting your foot.


2. Insert shoe trees when not wearing the shoes.

3. After each use, assuming leather shoes, insert shoe trees and coat the entire shoe with a polish of the same color.

4. Use a horsehair shoe brush to lightly brush the polish to a shine.

5. Repeat 3 & 4 until you like the appearance of the result.

6. The first time you do this it might take an hour or more for each shoe. Thereafter it might take a few minutes or as much time as you care to spend.

One of the most effective ways to increase the durability of your shoes is to keep them clean and well maintained. Cleaning your shoes regularly will help to remove any dirt, debris, and sweat which can lead to premature wear and tear. Use a shoe brush and cleaning solution specifically made for shoes, then air dry them for best results. Additionally, use a protective spray to make them more water-resistant. Applying a leather conditioner to leather shoes will help to preserve the material and increase their lifespan. When your shoes begin to show signs of wear, take them to a professional to repair or replace any worn-out parts. By following these steps, you can significantly increase the durability of your shoes.
