I recently bought a pair of SAS loafers, and since they are now discontinued, I want to make sure I maintain these loafers for a long while before I need to buy another pair.
First, what general maintenance should I do to ensure that they stay in top shape? I've been using the inserts to keep the shape when I'm done wearing them, but that's about all I know.
Second, somehow the heel of my one loafer peeled slightly from walking on pavement. I'm not exactly sure how this happened, but I'm assuming it got caught on a jagged edge of the pavement or something. How should I fix this? I've heard about using taps to prevent this from happening again in the future, but I would assume that would affect comfort. Here are pictures to see what I mean:

What do you think?
Thanks.
