FAQs
Are these sneakers suitable for all genders?
This specific variant (UK 8, Green Suede) is categorized for males. However, the Karhu Fusion 2.0 series often features unisex designs, and many individuals wear them regardless of gender categorization based on personal style and fit preference.
Can I wear these sneakers in the rain?
Suede is not ideal for wet conditions. Exposure to rain can damage the material, lead to water stains, and alter the texture. It is recommended to wear them in dry weather and apply a water-repellent suede protector for light moisture resistance.
How do I choose the correct size?
These are a UK size 8. Karhu sizing is generally true to size. If you are unsure, we recommend consulting a Karhu size chart or trying them on if possible. Consider your typical UK shoe size.
What kind of socks should I wear with these sneakers?
For optimal comfort and to protect the shoe's interior, wear athletic or casual socks that wick moisture. Cotton or performance blends are good choices, depending on your activity level and preference.
Is the sole durable for daily walking?
Yes, the Karhu Fusion 2.0 series is designed with durable construction, including a robust sole, making them suitable and comfortable for everyday walking and casual use.
Where are these sneakers made?

Do the laces need special care?
The laces can be removed and hand-washed gently with mild soap and water if they become dirty. Allow them to air dry completely before re-lacing the sneakers.
Troubleshooting
Suede looks matted or flat.
Use a suede brush to gently brush the nap in one direction. For stubborn areas, a soft-bristled brush or eraser can help lift the fibers.
Stains on the suede.
For fresh, dry stains, use a suede eraser. For liquid stains, blot immediately with a clean cloth, then allow to dry and treat with a suede cleaner according to product instructions.
Shoes feel too stiff.
Wear them for short periods around the house or on light errands to gradually break them in. The materials, especially suede, will soften and conform to your foot over time.
Color appears faded or uneven.
Avoid prolonged direct sun exposure. For minor fading, a suede renovator spray in a matching color can help restore vibrancy. Always test on a discreet area first.
Unpleasant odor from inside the shoe.
Ensure shoes are fully dry after wear. Use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle baking soda inside overnight (remove before wearing). Allow shoes to air out in a well-ventilated area.

Care Instructions
Proper care is crucial for maintaining the premium look and longevity of your suede sneakers:
- Initial Protection: Consider applying a high-quality suede protector spray before the first wear. This creates a barrier against water and stains.
- Regular Cleaning: Use a dedicated suede brush to gently remove surface dirt and debris. Brush in one direction to maintain the nap of the suede.
- Spot Cleaning: For minor spots or scuffs, use a suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaner. Work gently to avoid damaging the material.
- Deep Cleaning: For more stubborn stains, a suede cleaning solution can be used. Always follow the product's instructions and test on an inconspicuous area first.
- Drying: If your sneakers get wet, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and help maintain their shape. Allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources or sunlight, which can damage suede.
- Storage: Store your sneakers in a cool, dry place, ideally in a shoe bag or box, to protect them from dust and sunlight. Avoid stacking heavy items on top of them to prevent crushing the suede nap.
