Troubleshooting
Suede appears dirty or matted
Use a suede brush to restore the nap. For stubborn marks, consult a specialized suede cleaner and follow its instructions carefully.
Discomfort during initial wear
New shoes may require a brief break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially to allow them to mold to your feet.
Color transfer from laces or upper
This can occasionally happen with new footwear, especially in darker colors. Ensure laces are dry before prolonged contact with lighter clothing. Allow shoes to fully dry if they become wet.
