Troubleshooting
Suede appears scuffed or dirty
Use a dry suede brush to gently remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, consult a specialized suede cleaner and follow its instructions precisely.
Leather creasing excessively
This is natural with leather. To minimize creasing, ensure a proper fit and consider using shoe trees when not in use.
Laces are difficult to tie securely
Ensure the eyelets are clear of debris. If laces are worn, consider replacing them with new, quality laces.
Unusual odor developing
Allow the shoes to air out completely in a well-ventilated area. Using cedar shoe trees can help absorb moisture and odors.
