Are these shoes suitable for running?

No, the Galapagos are designed as lifestyle or casual shoes. They are not intended for athletic performance activities like running.

How do I clean the suede material?

Use a dedicated suede brush for general cleaning and a suede protector spray for prevention. For stains, spot clean with a suede eraser or specialized cleaner, and always allow to air dry.

What material is the upper made of?

The upper is made entirely of suede.

Do these shoes come in other colors?

While the described model is in brown tones, similar styles within the Galapagos series might be available in other colorways.

What does the 'GALAPAGOS' branding refer to?

Are these waterproof?

Troubleshooting

Suede appears matted or dirty

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

Shoes feel too tight

Suede can stretch slightly with wear. If they remain uncomfortable after a few wears, consider using shoe trees or consulting a cobbler for professional stretching.

Color transfer to socks or trousers

This can occur with new suede, especially in darker colors. Ensure the shoes are dry and consider using a suede sealer. Wash affected clothing separately.
