How should I clean the suede material?

Troubleshooting

Suede appears discolored or stained.

Use a dedicated suede eraser for dry stains. For wet stains, blot immediately with a clean, dry cloth and allow to air dry naturally. A suede brush can help restore the nap.

Shoes feel too tight.

Suede can stretch slightly with wear. If initially tight, wear them for short periods initially. Ensure you have selected the correct size; refer to the sizing chart for accurate measurements.

Soles are dirty.

Wipe the rubber sole with a damp cloth. For stubborn dirt, a soft brush and mild soap can be used, then wipe clean with a damp cloth and allow to dry.
