Troubleshooting
Suede looks dull or dirty
Use a suede brush to restore the nap. For stains, use a specialized suede cleaner and follow product instructions.
White accents are scuffed
Try using a magic eraser or a mild cleaning solution on a cloth to gently lift the scuff marks. Test on an inconspicuous area first.
Laces are difficult to tie or keep tied
Ensure laces are properly threaded through eyelets and consider double-knotting for a more secure fit.
