Troubleshooting
Suede appears dull or dirty.
Gently brush the suede with a dedicated suede brush to remove surface dirt and revive the nap. For stubborn stains, use a suede eraser and a small amount of specialized suede cleaner, always following product instructions.
Scuff marks on the gum rubber outsole.
Use a soft cloth dampened with a mild soap and water solution to gently wipe away scuff marks. For tougher marks, a Mr. Clean Magic Eraser (or similar melamine foam cleaner) can be effective, but use with caution and test a small area first.
Shoes feel tight or uncomfortable.
Ensure you have the correct size. New shoes may require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially to allow the materials to conform to your foot. You can also adjust lacing tension to improve comfort.
Suede looks matted or flat.
After cleaning or wear, the suede nap can become flattened. Use a suede brush to gently brush the fibers in one direction to restore their texture and appearance.
