Troubleshooting
Suede appears dirty or stained
Use a suede brush for dry dirt. For stains, apply a small amount of specialized suede cleaner with a soft cloth, working gently from the outside of the stain inward. Allow to air dry completely.
Shoes feel too tight
Ensure you have selected the correct size. If slightly tight, wear thicker socks around the house for a short period to help stretch them. Consider using a shoe stretcher if the tightness persists.
Gum sole discoloration
Gently clean the sole with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid abrasive cleaners or excessive scrubbing, which can damage the material.
