Water spots or stains on suede
Allow the shoe to dry naturally away from heat. Once dry, use a suede eraser to gently lift the stain. For persistent stains, consult a professional shoe cleaner.
Rubber sole appears dirty
Clean the rubber sole with a damp cloth and mild soap. Ensure the shoe is completely dry before wearing.
