FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for all weather conditions?
No, due to the suede material, these shoes are best suited for dry conditions. Exposure to heavy rain or wet environments can damage the suede. We recommend using a suede protector spray.
How do I clean scuffs or dirt from the suede?
For dry dirt, use a soft suede brush. For scuffs or tougher marks, a suede eraser works best. Always brush in one direction to maintain the nap.
Do these shoes run true to size?
These shoes are generally true to UK sizing. However, foot shapes vary, so we recommend referring to a size guide if available or trying them on to ensure the best fit.
Can I wear these shoes without socks?
While it's a common style for moccasins, wearing socks (especially no-show socks) can help absorb moisture and prolong the life of the shoe's interior, as well as improve hygiene.
What kind of sole do these shoes have?
The Tower London Apache Shoes feature a simple crepe rubber sole, offering comfort and flexibility for everyday wear.
Are these shoes unisex?
Yes, the design of the Tower London Apache Shoes is intended to be unisex, making them suitable for both men and women.
Can I use regular shoe polish on these suede shoes?
No, regular shoe polish is not suitable for suede. It can damage the material and alter its texture. Always use specialized suede cleaning and protective products.
Troubleshooting
Suede appears matted or dull
Use a suede brush to gently restore the nap of the suede by brushing in one consistent direction.
Water stains on suede
Allow the shoes to dry naturally. Once dry, gently brush the affected area with a suede brush. For stubborn stains, a specialized suede cleaner may be needed.
Shoes feel too tight initially
Suede can stretch slightly with wear. Wear them for short periods around the house. If they remain uncomfortable, consider professional shoe stretching.
Scuffs or shiny spots on suede
Gently rub the scuff with a suede eraser. For deeper marks, try a very fine-grit sandpaper (like 400-600 grit) very lightly, then brush the nap.

- Tops: T-shirts, polo shirts, casual button-downs, light sweaters.
- Occasions: Weekend wear, casual office settings, social gatherings, spring/summer events.
Care
Suede requires specific care to maintain its appearance and longevity.
- Protection: Before first wear, treat the shoes with a high-quality suede protector spray to repel water and stains. Reapply periodically as per product instructions.
- Cleaning:
- For dry dirt or dust, use a soft suede brush to gently brush in one direction.
- For tougher marks or scuffs, use a suede eraser (often included with suede care kits) to gently rub the affected area.
- Avoid using water directly on suede, as it can cause stains and alter the texture.
- Drying: If the shoes get wet, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and maintain their shape. Let them air dry naturally away from direct heat sources.
- Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
- Avoid: Do not machine wash or tumble dry. Avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain or mud without proper protection.
