Troubleshooting
Suede color fading or looking dull
Use a suede brush to lift the nap and restore color. Apply a suede refresher spray if needed.
Stains on the suede material
Gently rub the stain with a suede eraser. For tougher stains, use a slightly damp cloth or consult a professional cleaner. Avoid excessive water.
Crepe sole appears dirty or discolored
Wipe the sole with a damp cloth. For persistent marks, a mild soap solution can be used sparingly, followed by wiping with a clean, damp cloth. Ensure the shoe is dry afterward.
