Troubleshooting

Suede discoloration or marks

Gently use a suede eraser for minor marks. For deeper stains, consult specialized suede cleaning products and follow instructions carefully. Avoid using water excessively.

Laces getting dirty

Remove laces and hand wash with mild detergent and cool water. Allow them to air dry completely before re-lacing.
