Troubleshooting

Suede appears dirty or stained

Use a suede brush to gently remove dry dirt. For tougher stains, apply a dedicated suede cleaner sparingly with a cloth, following the cleaner's instructions. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.

Laces are worn or dirty

Replace laces with a new pair of matching color and length. Laces can be gently hand-washed with mild soap and water.

Shoes feel too tight

Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks. If the shoes are new, they may need a short break-in period. For persistent tightness, consider professional shoe stretching services.

Color transfer from suede to socks

This can happen with new suede products. Consider wearing darker socks initially. If the issue persists, the dye might be unstable; contact customer support.
