Troubleshooting

Suede appears dull, matted, or stained

Use a specialized suede brush to gently restore the nap and remove surface dirt. For stains, apply a dedicated suede cleaner following its instructions, being careful not to over-saturate the material. Always allow to air dry.

Shoes feel stiff or uncomfortable initially

This is common with new footwear, especially those with unique silhouettes. Wear the sneakers for short periods initially to allow the suede and sole to conform to your foot. Ensure you have selected the correct size.

Sole grip feels inadequate on certain surfaces

While the rubber outsole provides good general traction, exercise caution on extremely wet or highly polished surfaces. Suede material itself is not designed for all-weather performance, and the sole's grip may be reduced in adverse conditions.

Suede gets wet and discolored after exposure to moisture

Suede is highly susceptible to water damage. Prevent this by applying a high-quality suede protector spray regularly. If they do get wet, blot gently with a clean cloth and allow them to air dry completely away from direct heat. Do not rub the wet suede.

Care

Proper care is essential to maintain the luxurious look and feel of the suede:

  • Cleaning: For light dirt or dust, use a specialized suede brush to gently brush in one direction to restore the nap. For tougher stains, use a suede cleaner specifically designed for footwear, following the product's instructions carefully. Avoid scrubbing vigorously.
  • Protection: Apply a suede protector spray before the first wear and reapply periodically. This helps repel water and stains, offering an essential layer of defense.
  • Drying: If your sneakers get wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do NOT use direct heat sources like heaters or hairdryers, as this can damage the suede.
  • Storage: Store them in a cool, dry place, ideally with shoe trees to help maintain their shape and absorb moisture.
