Troubleshooting
Suede looks flat or dull
Use a suede brush to gently lift the nap and restore texture. Ensure the brush is clean and dry.
Scuff marks on suede
Allow the mark to dry. Gently try to rub it out with a suede eraser or the edge of a clean suede brush. For deeper scuffs, a specialized suede cleaner might be needed.
Shoes feel slightly stiff
Wear the shoes for short periods initially to break them in. Consider using thin socks. If stiffness persists, a cobbler may offer stretching services.
Water spots or stains
Allow the area to dry naturally away from direct heat. Once dry, try brushing with a suede brush. For stubborn marks, a suede cleaner is recommended.
