Troubleshooting

Suede appears dirty or matted.

Use a suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, consult a specialized suede cleaner.

Color transfer from suede to socks.

This can sometimes occur with new suede products. Ensure the suede is properly treated and allow it to air out. If persistent, consider using a suede protectant spray.

Discomfort or rubbing on the heel.

Ensure laces are tied correctly for a snug but not overly tight fit. Break in the shoes gradually with short wear periods. Wearing appropriate socks can also help.

Mesh shows signs of wear.

Avoid harsh scrubbing. Use a damp cloth with mild soap for cleaning. Inspect regularly for any tears or holes that may require professional repair.
