Troubleshooting

Suede appears dull or dirty

Gently brush the surface with a suede brush to restore the nap and remove light dirt. For persistent marks, use a suede eraser or consult a professional cleaner.

Laces are difficult to adjust

Ensure the laces are not overly tight. Loosen them slightly before attempting to adjust the fit, then re-tighten evenly.

Boots feel stiff initially

This is common with new suede footwear. Wear the boots for short periods around the house to break them in. The suede will naturally soften with wear.

Water spots or marks on suede

Allow the boots to dry naturally away from heat. Once dry, gently brush the affected area with a suede brush. For significant water damage, professional cleaning may be necessary.
