Troubleshooting
Suede appears dirty or stained
Use a suede eraser for light marks. For tougher stains, consult a specialized suede cleaner and follow product instructions carefully. Always test on an inconspicuous area first. Allow to air dry.
Shoes feel too tight
Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring a less constrictive fit. If the shoe is fundamentally too small, it may require a size exchange.
