No-show socks or ankle socks are typically recommended to maintain the classic boat shoe aesthetic. You can also wear them sockless for a more casual look.

Can I wear these for formal occasions?

How often should I reapply suede protector?

It is generally recommended to reapply suede protector every few months, or after cleaning or exposure to significant moisture.

What does 'Core Suede' refer to?

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dirty or stained

Use a suede brush to gently remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner, testing on an inconspicuous area first. Allow to air dry completely.

Shoes feel stiff or uncomfortable

Wear the shoes around the house for short periods to break them in. Suede can soften with wear.

Soles feel slippery on wet surfaces

The rubber outsole provides traction, but caution is advised on extremely wet or slippery surfaces. Ensure the soles are clean and free of debris.
