Care Instructions
Proper care will preserve the premium suede and overall appearance of your shoes. Follow these guidelines:
- Suede Protection: Before first wear, apply a high-quality suede protector spray. This helps repel water and prevent stains.
- Regular Cleaning (Suede):
- Use a suede brush to gently remove dirt and dust. Brush in one direction to maintain the nap.
- For tougher spots, use a suede eraser to rub away marks.
- For deep stains, use a specialized suede cleaner according to product instructions.
- Gum Outsole Care: Clean the semi-translucent gum outsole with a damp cloth or a soft brush and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals that could damage the rubber.
- Drying: If shoes get wet, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and maintain their shape. Allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat or sunlight.
- Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, to prevent fading and material degradation. Consider using shoe trees to maintain their shape.
- Avoid Water: Suede is particularly susceptible to water damage. Try to avoid wearing your shoes in heavy rain or wet conditions.
