Care and Maintenance:
Suede Protection: Before first wear, consider applying a reputable suede protector spray to help repel water and stains.
Cleaning Suede: For dirt or scuffs, use a dedicated suede brush. Brush gently in one direction to remove loose dirt. For tougher marks, a suede eraser can be used. Avoid water where possible, as it can stain suede. If wet, blot gently with a clean cloth and let air dry naturally, away from direct heat.
Regular Cleaning: Wipe the rubber soles with a damp cloth to remove dirt. The upper, particularly the suede, should be spot cleaned with specialized suede products.
Odor Control: To prevent odors, allow shoes to air out after each wear. Shoe trees can help maintain shape and absorb moisture.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
