Troubleshooting
Suede appears dull or dirty
Use a suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For stubborn marks, use a dedicated suede cleaner and follow its instructions carefully.
Shoes feel too tight
Ensure you have selected the correct UK size. If the shoes are slightly snug, wearing them with medium-weight socks for short periods may help them mold to your feet over time. Avoid wearing in wet conditions which can shrink suede.
Rubber sole shows signs of wear
For minor wear, specialized sole repair kits might be available. For significant damage, consult a professional shoe repair service.
Color transfer from suede to socks
This can sometimes occur with new suede products. It is recommended to wear darker colored socks initially. Ensure the suede is dry before wearing.
