Troubleshooting
Visible dust or loose dirt on the surface
Use a soft-bristled dry suede brush to gently stroke the nap of the material in one direction to lift away debris.
Water spots on the suede
Gently blot the area with a clean, dry cloth. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally in a shaded area, then use a suede brush to restore the texture.
Scuff marks on the material
Use a specialized suede eraser, rubbing gently against the scuff, followed by brushing to blend the area with the rest of the shoe.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
For the best experience, ensure you have the correct UK sizing, as the fit is standard to slightly snug due to the suede construction. To maintain the condition of your trainers, use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dirt after each wear. For deeper cleaning, avoid soaking the sneakers in water; instead, use a dedicated suede cleaner or a soft-bristled brush to gently buff away stains. We recommend applying a suede-specific water and stain repellent spray before the first wear to provide a protective barrier against the elements. Store the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent fading of the Earth Strata pigment.
