FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for walking long distances?

While comfortable for everyday wear and standard commutes, they are designed for lifestyle and casual use rather than long-distance athletic walking.

Can I use leather cleaner on these?

No. You must use products specifically formulated for suede. Standard leather cleaners may damage the texture and finish of the suede.

How do I ensure I order the right size?

The HOLLIE series follows standard UK sizing. Ensure you check your current UK shoe size measurement before purchasing.

Are these waterproof?

No, suede is not naturally waterproof. Using a water-repellent spray can help add a layer of protection, but they should not be submerged or worn in heavy rain.

Can I polish these shoes?

You should not use standard shoe polish. If the black color appears to fade, use a designated black suede renovator spray.

Troubleshooting

Visible dust or loose dirt on surface

Use a specialized suede brush to gently lift dirt particles in the direction of the material grain.

Minor water spots

Allow to dry completely, then use a suede eraser or brush to restore the nap of the suede.

Shoe feels slightly tight initially

Suede will naturally soften and stretch slightly with wear. Wear them for short durations indoors to break them in gradually.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before wearing your HOLLIE shoes for the first time, it is highly recommended to apply a suede-specific protective spray to create a barrier against dust and minor spills. To maintain their appearance, use a suede brush to gently remove surface debris after each use. Store your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can fade the black dye over time. If they become wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from artificial heat sources like radiators to prevent the suede from becoming stiff or cracking.
