Troubleshooting

Suede looks matted or dull

Use a suede brush to gently lift and restore the nap of the material. Brush in multiple directions lightly.

Minor scuff marks appear

Try using a suede eraser. Gently rub the scuff mark. For persistent marks, consult specialized suede care products.

Shoes feel slightly tight after initial wear

Suede shoes can stretch slightly with wear. Try wearing them with thicker socks for a short period, or use a shoe stretcher if needed. Ensure proper sizing was selected initially.

Water spots on the suede

Allow the shoes to dry naturally away from direct heat. Once dry, use a suede brush to restore the texture. It is best to use a suede protector spray to prevent future water spots.
