Troubleshooting

Suede looks dull or dirty

Use a suede brush to lift the nap and remove loose dirt. For stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner and follow product instructions carefully.

Shoes feel stiff initially

This is common with new suede. Wear them for short periods to break them in gradually. The suede will soften with use.

Color transfer from suede

Ensure the suede is dry before wearing, especially in humid conditions or with light-colored socks. Protectants can sometimes help minimize transfer.

Outsole traction reduced

Clean the gum rubber outsole with a damp cloth to remove embedded dirt or debris that may be affecting grip.
