Troubleshooting
Suede looks matted or dirty
Gently brush the suede with a dedicated suede brush to lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For stubborn stains, use a suede eraser.
Leather shows scuff marks
For light scuffs, try buffing the area gently with a soft cloth. For deeper marks, a leather conditioner or a specialized leather repair product may be needed.
Overall discoloration
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. Clean the shoes regularly according to material-specific instructions. Consider using protective sprays designed for sneakers.
