Troubleshooting

Suede appears dirty or stained

Gently brush off dry dirt with a suede brush. For tougher stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner, following product instructions. Test any cleaner on an inconspicuous area first.

Shoes feel too tight

Wear them with thicker socks around the house for a short period to help them stretch slightly. If the fit is significantly off, consider if a different size is needed.

Rubber sole shows wear

Regular cleaning of the sole can help maintain its appearance. For significant wear, professional shoe repair services may be able to offer sole replacement options.

Color transfer from suede

This can sometimes occur with new suede. Ensure the shoes are properly cared for and protected. Avoid prolonged contact with light-colored materials, especially when the shoes are new or damp.
