<human>: I recently bought some new shoes. What is the best way to take care of them?
<bot>: The best way to take care of your new shoes is to make sure you clean them regularly with a damp cloth or shoe cleaner and dry them thoroughly before storing them in a cool, dry place. Avoid exposing them to extreme temperatures and direct sunlight as this can damage the material and reduce their lifespan. Finally, inspect your shoes periodically for any signs of wear and tear and replace them if necessary.
