Care Instructions for Suede Uppers
Maintaining the suede on your Samba trainers is crucial for their longevity and appearance:
- Initial Protection: Before first wear, apply a suede protector spray. This helps repel water and stains. Reapply periodically as per product instructions.
- Regular Cleaning: Use a suede brush to gently brush off dirt and dust. Brush in one direction to maintain the nap.
- Spot Cleaning: For minor stains, use a suede eraser or a soft, damp cloth. Gently rub the affected area. Avoid excessive moisture.
- Deep Cleaning (if necessary): For tougher stains, use a specialized suede cleaner according to its instructions. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.
- Drying: If wet, stuff the trainers with paper towels to absorb moisture and maintain shape. Let them air dry naturally away from direct heat or sunlight.
- Storage: Store them in a cool, dry place, ideally with shoe trees to help maintain their shape.
Do NOT:
- Machine wash or tumble dry.
- Use harsh chemicals or stiff brushes.
- Dry with direct heat (e.g., hairdryer, radiator), as this can damage the suede.
