Troubleshooting

Suede appears dirty or stained

Gently brush with a suede brush. For tougher stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner and follow product instructions carefully. Test cleaners on an inconspicuous area first.

Color fading

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. Store the shoes in a box or a dark place when not in use.

Fit feels too snug

Wear with thinner socks or consider using a shoe stretcher designed for suede. Ensure correct sizing was chosen initially.

Water damage to suede

Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from heat sources. Once dry, use a suede brush to restore the nap. Treat with a suede protector spray to add water resistance for future wear.
