Troubleshooting
Suede appears dirty or matted
Use a suede brush to restore the nap. For tougher stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner and test on an inconspicuous area first.
Color transfer from suede
Ensure the shoes are dry. If color transfer is occurring, a suede protector spray might help prevent future issues, but apply cautiously and test first.
Sole becoming discolored
Wipe the sole with a damp cloth. For stubborn marks, use a mild soap and water solution with a soft brush or cloth.
