Troubleshooting

Suede texture becomes matted or dirty.

Use a suede brush to gently restore the nap. For stubborn stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner and follow product instructions carefully.

Leather creases or scuffs easily.

Be mindful of where you step and avoid abrasive surfaces. Minor creases can sometimes be reduced with proper shoe shaping during storage. For scuffs, consider a leather conditioner or cleaner suitable for the material.

Outsole appears cloudy or discolored.

This is often a natural effect of the semi-translucent material. Clean gently with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals which could further affect the material.

Faux horsehair is snagged or damaged.

Carefully trim any loose or snagged fibers with small scissors. Avoid pulling at the material to prevent further damage.
