In footwear, the lining is the first layer to absorb sweat, which can cause other leathers to become brittle and crack over time. Buffalo fibers are naturally more resilient to these salts, ensuring the interior of the shoe remains intact for much longer. For the manufacturer, the large size of buffalo hides means higher cutting efficiency and fewer seams in the lining.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCare and Maintenance Instructions\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBuffalo lining is designed for low maintenance, as it is built to survive tough conditions.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli aria-level=\"1\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\n\u003cp role=\"presentation\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCleansing:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Periodically wipe the interior with a dry cloth to remove any salt buildup or grit.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli aria-level=\"1\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\n\u003cp role=\"presentation\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDrying:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e If the boots become soaked, allow them to dry naturally.
