Troubleshooting
Suede looks dull or dirty
Use a dedicated suede brush to restore the texture and remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, consult a specialized suede cleaning guide or product.
Translucent sole is scuffed or yellowed
Gently clean with a damp cloth. For stubborn marks, try a magic eraser or a sole deglazer, testing first on a small area. Avoid harsh chemicals.
Laces become dirty
Remove laces and hand wash them with mild detergent and water. Allow them to air dry completely before re-lacing.
Creasing on the upper
Some creasing is natural with wear, especially on leather and suede. To minimize, use shoe trees when storing and avoid overtightening laces.
