Suede Protection: Before first wear, consider applying a suede protector spray to guard against water and stains.
Cleaning: For light dirt, use a soft-bristled brush (like a suede brush) to gently brush away debris. For tougher stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner following the product instructions. Avoid excessive water, which can damage suede.
Drying: If wet, stuff the shoes with newspaper to help absorb moisture and maintain their shape. Air dry at room temperature; avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent fading and material degradation.
