Troubleshooting

Suede color fading

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. Use a suede protectant spray specifically designed for color retention.

Stains on suede

Address stains immediately. Use a suede eraser for dry marks. For wet stains, blot gently with a clean cloth and use a specialized suede cleaner if necessary, following product instructions.

Soles feel slippery

Ensure the rubber soles are clean and dry. If the issue persists, the traction may have diminished due to wear. Consider scuffing the soles slightly on a rough surface to improve grip.
