Troubleshooting
Suede appears dirty or matted
Use a suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For stubborn marks, try a suede eraser.
Shoe feels tight
Suede can stretch slightly over time. Wear them for short periods initially, or consider using shoe trees to help expand the fit.
Water stains on suede
Allow the shoes to air dry naturally. Once dry, use a suede brush to restore the texture. Future applications of a suede protector can help prevent this.
Fraying laces
Replace laces with a similar style and length. Ensure laces are tied securely but not excessively tight to avoid undue stress.
