FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, the Nike ACG Rufus with suede construction is not waterproof. Suede is susceptible to water damage and staining. We recommend applying a waterproofing spray designed for suede to offer some resistance, but they are not suitable for heavy rain or wet conditions.
How do I determine my size?
These shoes are available in UK adult sizing. We recommend checking a Nike size chart for conversions if you know your size in another region. Generally, Nike sizing is consistent, but if possible, trying them on is the best way to ensure a comfortable fit.
Can I wear these for serious hiking?
The Nike ACG Rufus is designed for light outdoor activities and urban exploration. While they are part of the ACG series, their mule design and suede material make them less suitable for serious, rugged hiking or technical trails. Opt for dedicated hiking boots for more demanding conditions.
What does 'ACG' stand for?
'ACG' stands for 'All Conditions Gear'. This Nike sub-brand focuses on products designed for versatility and durability in various outdoor environments, though specific material choices (like suede) can influence actual 'all conditions' performance.
How often should I clean the suede?
Regular light cleaning with a suede brush after each wear can prevent dirt buildup. For deeper cleaning, address stains as they occur. Applying a protector spray every few months, especially if worn frequently, is also beneficial.
Is the Limestone color easy to keep clean?
The Limestone (Beige) color is a light shade, meaning dirt and stains may be more noticeable compared to darker colors. Regular cleaning and consistent use of a suede protector spray are highly recommended to maintain its appearance.
Troubleshooting
Suede appears dirty or stained.
Use a dedicated suede brush to remove loose dirt. For deeper stains, gently use a suede eraser or a small amount of specialized suede cleaner solution. Always test cleaning products on an inconspicuous area first.
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable.
Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks. Sizing can vary, so if discomfort persists, consider trying a half size up. Some suede shoes may slightly stretch with wear.
Shoes get wet and appear discolored or stiff.
Stuff the shoes with newspaper to absorb moisture and help maintain their shape. Allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat. Once dry, use a suede brush to restore the nap.
Sole traction seems insufficient.
These shoes are designed for urban and light outdoor use. For activities requiring aggressive traction (e.g., slippery rocks, steep inclines), consider footwear specifically designed for those conditions. Ensure the outsoles are clean and free of debris.

Care & Maintenance
Proper care for your suede Nike ACG Rufus will help maintain its appearance and longevity.
- Initial Protection: Before first wear, consider applying a high-quality suede and nubuck protector spray. This creates a barrier against water and stains.
- Regular Cleaning: Use a suede brush to gently remove dirt and dust. Brush in one direction to maintain the nap of the suede.
- Spot Cleaning: For tougher stains, use a suede eraser to gently rub away marks. For liquid stains, blot immediately with a clean, dry cloth.
- Deep Cleaning: If necessary, use a specialized suede cleaner solution. Follow the product instructions carefully, applying sparingly and using a brush or sponge.
- Drying: If the shoes get wet, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and help retain their shape. Allow them to air dry at room temperature, away from direct heat or sunlight.
- Avoid Immersion: Do not machine wash or immerse suede shoes in water, as this can damage the material.
- Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry place, ideally with shoe trees or crumpled paper inside to maintain shape. Avoid storing in direct sunlight.
