Troubleshooting
Suede appears dirty or stained.
Use a dedicated suede eraser for dry marks. For wet stains, blot gently with a clean, dry cloth and allow to air dry. Avoid using water excessively. Consider a professional suede cleaner for stubborn stains.
Suede loses its texture (nap).
Gently brush the suede with a suede brush in one direction to lift and restore the nap. Ensure the shoes are completely dry before brushing.
Shoes feel slightly tight.
Suede can stretch slightly with wear. Wear them for short periods initially. If still uncomfortable, consider using shoe stretchers designed for suede.
