How to care
It is not recommended to constantly use shoe polish to treat Cossacks. To prevent greasy stains from remaining on your boots or shoes, you will need to apply a small amount of product to the surface and then polish it thoroughly. Every day, the products are wiped with a damp cloth, and scuffs and scratches are painted over with special paint. A few other useful tips:
- Leather shoes are treated once a week with a piece of cloth soaked in gasoline or turpentine to remove stains and cream residues - this is necessary to cleanse the pores. The rule does not apply to varnished models.
- When wet, the products are dried using thin paper or newspapers placed inside.
- To eliminate the unpleasant odor, the Cossacks are periodically wiped with hydrogen peroxide.
- White leather shoes should be cleaned with a weak solution of washing powder using soft brushes or sponges. After this, the surface is washed with warm water, wiped and covered with colorless cream.
- If the Cossacks are dry, you can soften them by rubbing vegetable or castor oil, Vaseline, or glycerin.
- The torn piece can be glued back to its original place using BF-2 glue or nail polish.
- It is not recommended to wear suede shoes in wet weather, as whitish spots appear on the material, which are difficult to get rid of. Cleaning is carried out carefully: dust is shaken off, dirt is removed with a small brush, and the models are kept over steam. Heavy stains can be removed using a soap solution with the addition of a few drops of ammonia.

History of appearance
Cossack boots were invented in Spain back in the 16th century - initially they were an exclusively men's shoe model. These simple but stylish shoes were perfect for riding a horse: the angled heel prevented the foot from slipping out of the stirrup, and the pointed toe easily fell into it. However, the widespread trend for Cossacks was introduced in the 30s of the last century, and it was done by American cowboys: they were the ones who entertained themselves by dancing in wide jeans tucked into pointed boots (guys, thanks for the Cossacks and the country style in general!). In the 2000s, when it was time to rummage through grandma's chest and find the treasure, Cossacks again came into fashion and remained in it for a long time.
