Troubleshooting
Suede appears dirty or stained
Use a suede eraser for small marks. For larger stains or overall dirt, use a suede brush. If necessary, consult a professional shoe cleaner specializing in suede.
Shoes feel tight or uncomfortable
Wear the shoes with thin socks for a short period to allow them to break in. Ensure you have the correct size. Consider using thin insoles if slight cushioning is needed.
Laces become frayed
Replace the rawhide laces with new ones of a similar material and length to maintain the shoe's aesthetic.
