How should I clean the suede material?

Troubleshooting
Suede looks dull or dirty
Use a dedicated suede brush to gently remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, use a suede eraser or a slightly damp cloth with a mild suede cleaner, then allow to air dry.
Laces become worn
Replacement laces can be purchased from PUMA or general shoe accessory retailers. Ensure they are of a similar length and material for best results.
Sole feels slippery on certain surfaces
Ensure the rubber outsole is clean and free of debris. For persistent issues on very smooth surfaces, consider a specialized shoe grip spray, but test in an inconspicuous area first.
