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.
Laces become dirty
Remove laces and wash them by hand with mild soap and water. Allow them to dry completely before re-lacing.
Shoes feel stiff initially
Wear the shoes for short periods indoors to allow them to break in and mold to your feet. Suede and leather will naturally soften with use.
Discoloration on leather accents
Wipe gently with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid exposing the shoes to excessive moisture or direct sunlight for prolonged periods.
