Troubleshooting

Suede texture feels rough or matted.

Gently brush the suede with a dedicated suede brush to restore its nap. For persistent matting, a suede eraser can help lift the fibers.

Discoloration from water exposure.

Water stains on suede can be difficult to remove. If minor, try brushing once dry. For severe stains, professional suede cleaning may be necessary. Always allow suede to air dry naturally.

Scuff marks on the midsole.

Use a damp cloth or a magic eraser with caution on the rubber midsole to gently remove scuff marks. Test on an inconspicuous area first.

Compatibility: These sneakers are designed for adult women and are compatible with a wide range of casual apparel. Sizing is typically provided in UK women's shoe sizes.

Care:

  • Suede Care: Use a soft brush specifically designed for suede to remove loose dirt and dust. For tougher stains, a suede eraser can be effective. Avoid using water, as it can stain and alter the texture of the suede. If wet, allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat.
  • General Cleaning: Wipe down the midsole and rubber components with a damp cloth. For the laces, remove them and hand wash or place them in a laundry bag before machine washing.
  • Storage: Store the sneakers in a cool, dry place, preferably in their original box or a shoe bag to protect them from dust and direct sunlight, which can fade the color over time.
