Troubleshooting

Suede appears dull or dirty

Use a suede brush to restore the nap. For tougher stains, use a suede cleaner specifically designed for the material and follow the product's instructions carefully. Ensure the shoes are completely dry before brushing.

Laces are worn or damaged

Replace laces with standard shoelaces. You can often find replacement laces that match the original color or choose a contrasting color for a new look.

Slight discomfort during initial wear

Break in the shoes gradually by wearing them for short periods. The suede and sole will mold to your foot shape over time, increasing comfort.
