FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

Yes, they generally follow standard sizing; however, since suede is a flexible material, they will mold slightly to your foot shape after a few wears.

Can I wear these in the rain?

It is not recommended. Suede is susceptible to water damage, and moisture can leave lasting marks on the material.

How do I keep the suede looking clean?

Regular use of a suede brush and a protective spray is the best way to maintain the material.

Are they comfortable for all-day walking?

They are designed for standard daily activity. The adjustable strap provides a secure fit, though they are not intended for long-distance athletic walking.

Can I polish these like leather shoes?

No. Do not use standard leather polish on suede, as it will ruin the texture. Always use products specifically formulated for suede.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dull or matted

Use a suede brush to gently brush the material in one direction to restore the nap.

Strap feels loose after long-term wear

Ensure the buckle is set to the correct hole; if the holes have stretched, a cobbler can add an extra hole for a tighter fit.

Water spots on the suede

Allow the shoes to dry naturally away from heat sources, then brush the affected area with a suede brush to even out the surface.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Vagabond ALEYA shoes remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:

  1. Initial Protection: Before wearing, apply a suede-specific protective spray to create a barrier against dust and moisture.
  2. Cleaning: If the shoes get dusty, use a specialized suede brush to lift the nap and remove surface particles. Do not use water or heavy soaps.
  3. Stain Removal: For small marks, a suede eraser can be used gently. For deep stains, it is recommended to visit a professional leather or shoe repair specialist.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Use shoe trees or crumpled tissue paper to maintain the rounded toe shape when not in use.
