Troubleshooting

Suede appears dirty or scuffed

Use a dedicated suede brush to lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For tougher marks, apply a small amount of suede cleaner with a clean cloth, following the product's instructions, and then brush to restore texture.

Yellow accents losing vibrancy

Gently wipe the yellow areas with a clean, slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or excessive scrubbing, as this can damage the color.

Laces feel stiff or dirty

Remove laces and hand wash them with mild detergent and water. Allow them to air dry completely before re-lacing the shoes.

Shoes feel uncomfortable after extended wear

Ensure the correct size is being worn. For initial wear, break them in gradually. Consider using supportive insoles if additional cushioning is desired.
