Care Instructions:
- Leather and Suede Care: Use a dedicated suede brush to remove surface dirt and maintain the texture of the suede. For the leather parts, use a damp cloth to wipe away dirt. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive water, which can damage the materials.
- Laces: If laces become soiled, they can typically be removed and hand-washed with mild soap and water. Ensure they are completely dry before re-lacing.
- Storage: Store the shoes in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape when not in use.
- Protection: Consider using a water and stain repellent spray specifically designed for leather and suede to offer an extra layer of protection.
