Troubleshooting

Suede material looks dull or dirty

Use a suede brush to restore the nap and remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, use a dedicated suede cleaning product following its instructions.

Fit feels slightly tight

Wear with thin socks initially. Suede and nubuck will naturally stretch and conform to your foot with wear. If excessively tight, consider a shoe stretcher or professional stretching service.

Color transfer from shoes to socks

This can happen with new, darker colored shoes. It's advisable to wear darker socks until the color stabilizes, or use a protective spray designed for suede and nubuck.
