Merry Christmas from Chez Gerry 1958 🎄
J.P. HenriDuring this festive season, the entire team at Chez Gerry 1958 wishes you a Merry Christmas filled with warmth, peace and precious moments with those you love.
Christmas is a time for traditions, for passed-down skills, and for objects with a story. Like a good pair of well-maintained leather boots, some things gain value over time. For us, shoemaking is first and foremost about durability , respect for quality craftsmanship , and a love of beautiful things .
Whether you wear sturdy work boots, Goodyear-welted shoes, or a pair that has been with you for years, we are proud to help you maintain and restore them — so they continue to serve you for a long time.
🎁 Holiday Tip: Protecting Leather in Winter
- Remove the salt as soon as possible (damp cloth + air drying).
- Nourish the leather with a suitable conditioner (prevents dry and cracked leather).
- Protect with a finishing product according to the type of leather.
- Alternate your pairs if possible: leather likes to breathe.
If you have any doubt about the best product or the right treatment, write to us via chat on chezgerry1958.com — we will guide you.
Thank you for your trust, your visits to the workshop, your orders by mail and your loyalty.
Merry Christmas to you and your loved ones.
— Gerry
