FAQs

Can I wear the INES sandals in the rain?

It is not recommended. Suede is sensitive to moisture, and heavy rain can permanently damage or stain the material.

How do I clean my beige suede sandals?

Use a suede brush for light cleaning. For tougher stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner or eraser, following the manufacturer's instructions carefully.

Are these suitable for long-distance walking?

These shoes are designed for daily wear and social use. While comfortable, they do not provide the specialized support of athletic sneakers for long-distance trekking.

Does the suede material stretch?

Suede is a natural material and will soften and slightly conform to your foot shape over time with regular use.

Is the beige color prone to showing dirt?

As with any light-colored footwear, surface dirt may be more visible. Regular brushing and protective sprays can help mitigate this.

Are these shoes true to size?

The INES series generally follows standard sizing, but it is advised to use the UK size guide provided to ensure the best fit for your specific foot measurements.

Troubleshooting

Surface dirt accumulation

Use a soft-bristled brush specifically designed for suede to gently buff the surface in the direction of the nap.

Minor water spotting

Allow the shoes to air dry naturally in a cool room, away from direct heat sources like radiators, then gently brush the surface to restore the texture.

Difficulty with fit

Ensure you are referencing the UK size conversion correctly; if they feel tight, suede naturally relaxes slightly over time with consistent wear.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Proper care is essential for extending the life of your suede footwear. Since these are made of delicate material, avoid wearing them in heavy rain or mud. Use a soft-bristled suede brush to gently remove surface dust and debris after each wear. If a stain occurs, use a specialized suede eraser or cleaner. For storage, keep the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent fading of the beige pigment. Consider using a suede-safe protective spray to create a light barrier against spills before wearing them for the first time.
