Troubleshooting

Suede appears dull or has minor marks.

Use a suede brush to restore the nap and remove surface dirt. For tougher marks, try a suede eraser.

Shoes feel too tight upon first wear.

Suede shoes often require a brief break-in period. Wear them for short periods initially. Ensure the laces are loosened adequately during wear.

Water spots on suede.

Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat. Once dry, gently brush with a suede brush to restore the texture. Consider applying a suede protector for future prevention.
