Since 1992, French designer Christian Louboutin has designed sleek, seductive shoes that are known for their vivid cherry-red soles. This iconic touch came in a flash of inspiration to the designer, who coated the soles of his first epitome shoe with cherry Chanel boom smoothen taken from a adult female painting her nails in his studio. The crimson sole captured the spirit of his colorful sketches and became a selling betoken for the shoes. The bright bottoms of the Christian Louboutin shoes will show signs of vesture more than easily than night soles, but scuffs and scratches can be remedied.

Speak with a local cobbler nigh the possibility of adding red sole protectors to the bottom of your Christian Louboutin shoes. The flexible plastic coating will preserve the original red soles of your shoes, and many companies produce sole protectors in colors that closely mimic the carmine of Christian Louboutins. Cobblers tin apply the sole protector to the half of the sole that makes contact with the ground, leaving the trademark Louboutin postage stamp exposed for added flair. Make sure that your cobbler is experienced in applying sole protectors to shoes, and specifically ask for cherry sole protectors instead of traditional black protectors.

Transport your shoes to a leather repair company that specializes in repairing Christian Louboutin shoes. The official Christian Louboutin website recommends three shoe repair companies in New York City, Raleigh and Los Angeles that specialize in refurbishing Louboutin shoes. All three businesses have shoes shipped domestically and internationally, and each visitor's website lists specific procedures for sending your shoes to a Louboutin-recommended shoe repair site.

Avoid needlessly exposing your shoes to gravel, puddles and other footing-level hazards that will shorten the life of your shoe. Exposing the shoe to inclement conditions and crude conditions will habiliment the reddish sole, causing scratches and scuff marks.

Cover a scratch or visible scuff marking by coloring in the flaw with a red permanent mark. The color of most red permanent pens will blend in with the cherry-red of Christian Louboutin soles, and only those staring extremely closely at your anxiety will be able to spot the marker. Cherry boom smooth works well in place of a permanent marker.

Warning

While scuff marks and scratches are normal, the cherry sole of a Christian Louboutin shoe should never peel away in a thin, plastic canvas. If your shoe does and so, it is likely that yous purchased a knock-off blueprint.
