Troubleshooting
Suede losing its texture
Gently brush the suede with a suede brush in multiple directions to restore the nap. Ensure the shoe is dry before brushing.
Minor scuffs or marks on suede
Use a suede eraser to gently rub away the mark. For tougher stains, a specialized suede cleaner may be required following product instructions.
Color transfer to socks
This can occur with new, dark-colored suede. It is recommended to wear dark socks initially. The color transfer should diminish with wear.
Water damage to suede
Blot excess water immediately with a clean, dry cloth. Allow to air dry naturally away from heat sources. Once dry, use a suede brush to restore texture.
