Care Instructions
Proper care for your suede Gazelle shoes will help maintain their vibrant look and extend their lifespan.
- General Cleaning: For light dirt and dust, use a soft-bristled suede brush (or a clean, soft toothbrush) to gently brush in one direction. This also helps to restore the nap of the suede.
- Stain Removal: For more stubborn marks or stains, use a specialized suede cleaner. Apply according to the product's instructions, usually by gently dabbing the stained area, then brushing once dry.
- Water Protection: Suede is sensitive to water. If the shoes get wet, blot excess moisture with a clean towel and allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat (like a hairdryer), as this can damage the suede.
- Deep Cleaning: For heavy soiling, consider professional suede cleaning.
- Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
- Avoid: Do not machine wash or tumble dry. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
