Troubleshooting

Suede looking dull or dirty

Use a suede brush to restore the nap and remove surface dirt. For stubborn marks, consult a specialized suede cleaner and follow its instructions precisely.

Shoes feel slightly tight

Suede can stretch slightly with wear. Try wearing them with thicker socks for short periods at home to gently break them in. If the tightness is significant, consider a shoe stretcher designed for suede.

Water stains on suede

Allow the shoes to dry naturally. Once dry, use a suede brush to lift the nap. For persistent stains, a suede cleaner may be necessary, but test on an inconspicuous area first.
