Troubleshooting
Suede appears dirty or matted
Use a suede brush to restore the nap. For stubborn marks, try a suede eraser or professional cleaning.
Creases forming on the toe box
To minimize creasing, ensure proper fit. Stuffing the shoes with paper or using shoe trees when not in use can help maintain shape.
Laces become dirty
Remove laces and hand wash them with mild soap and water. Allow them to air dry completely before re-lacing.
Discoloration from water exposure
Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat. Once dry, use a suede brush to try and restore the color and texture. Prevention with protector spray is recommended.
