Troubleshooting
Suede appears dull or dirty
Use a suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove superficial dirt. For stubborn marks, consider a suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaner, following product instructions carefully.
Laces become worn or damaged
Replace the leather laces with new ones of a similar length and material to maintain the shoe's aesthetic. Ensure they are correctly threaded through the eyelets.
Shoes feel slightly tight
Wear them with thin socks for a short period to allow the suede to mold to your feet. Alternatively, consider using a shoe stretcher designed for suede, following its instructions.
Water spots on suede
Allow the shoes to dry naturally away from direct heat. Once dry, gently brush the affected area with a suede brush to restore the texture. Applying a suede protector can help prevent future water marks.
