Troubleshooting

Suede looks dirty or stained

Use a suede brush to gently remove dry dirt. For stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner and follow the product's instructions carefully. Test any cleaner on an inconspicuous area first.

Shoes feel too tight

Loosen the laces and wear them for a short period to allow the material to mold to the foot. Ensure you have selected the correct size; consult the sizing guide if unsure.

Outsole losing grip

Clean the outsole with a damp cloth to remove any embedded dirt or debris that might be reducing traction.

Color transfer from suede

This can sometimes happen with suede. Ensure the shoes are properly conditioned and consider using a suede protector spray. Avoid wearing them with light-colored socks until you are confident there is no transfer.
