Troubleshooting

Suede looking dull or dirty

Use a dedicated suede brush to restore the nap and remove light dirt. For stubborn marks, a suede eraser can be effective. Always brush in one direction.

Laces are difficult to tie securely

Ensure laces are threaded evenly through all eyelets. Consider replacing laces with a different material or thickness if consistent slipping occurs.

Slight stiffness on first wear

Wear the shoes around the house for short periods to allow the suede to conform to your foot shape. This will break them in for increased comfort.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning Suede: Use a soft-bristled suede brush to remove surface dirt and dust regularly. For tougher stains, a suede eraser can be used. Avoid using water directly on suede as it can stain and alter the texture.
  • Midsole and Outsole: Wipe clean with a damp cloth. Ensure no abrasive materials are used.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe box or dust bag to protect from dust and sunlight, which can fade colors.
