Troubleshooting

Suede appears dirty or marked

Gently brush with a suede brush to remove dry dirt. For tougher stains, use a specialized suede cleaner or a slightly damp cloth, followed by air drying.

Boots feel stiff after getting wet

Allow the boots to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources. Stuffing them with paper can help absorb moisture and maintain shape.

Difficulty pulling boots on

Utilize the rear pull tab. Ensure laces are sufficiently loosened before attempting to put the boot on.
