Troubleshooting
Suede appears scuffed or dirty
Use a dedicated suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove dry dirt. For tougher marks, try a suede eraser.
Straps feel too tight or loose
Adjust the rip tape fastenings to achieve a secure yet comfortable fit. Ensure the tape is clean for optimal adhesion.
Color transfer from suede
This can occur when the suede is wet. Allow the sandals to dry naturally away from direct heat, then brush to restore the nap. Consider a color-safe suede protector.
Sole feels slippery
Ensure the sole is clean and dry. The thermoplastic rubber provides good grip under normal conditions; excessive wear might reduce traction.
