Care
Maintaining the pristine look of your suede trainers is important. While specific instructions are on the product label, here are general care guidelines for the suede upper:
- Protection: It's highly recommended to apply a suede and nubuck protector spray before the first wear to create a barrier against moisture and stains.
- Regular Cleaning: Use a suede brush to gently remove dust and loose dirt. Brush in one direction to maintain the nap.
- Spot Cleaning: For dried stains, use a suede eraser to gently rub them away. For liquid stains, blot immediately with a clean, dry cloth. For more stubborn marks, use a suede cleaner specifically designed for the material, following the product's instructions carefully.
- Drying: If your trainers get wet, stuff them with paper to absorb excess moisture and allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as these can damage the suede.
- Storage: Store them in a cool, dry place, ideally with shoe trees to help maintain their shape.
- Avoid: Do not machine wash or tumble dry these trainers. Avoid using harsh chemicals or stiff brushes that can damage the suede.
