What is the sole made of?
The sole is a white cupsole made from an incredibly lightweight but durable rubber compound.
How should I care for the suede material?
Regularly use a suede brush to clean off dust and dirt. Apply a suede protector spray to prevent stains and water damage, and avoid wearing them in wet conditions.
Can these shoes be worn in formal settings?
These shoes are best suited for smart-casual occasions. While stylish, their suede material and cupsole construction make them more appropriate for relaxed environments rather than highly formal events.

Troubleshooting
Suede color appears uneven after cleaning
Allow the shoes to dry naturally away from direct heat. Once dry, gently brush the suede with a suede brush in one direction to restore the nap and even out the color.
Water stains on the suede
Let the shoes dry completely. Then, use a suede brush to gently lift the nap. For persistent stains, a suede eraser might be necessary, followed by brushing. Reapply suede protector.
White sole shows dirt easily
Clean the rubber sole with a damp cloth and mild soap. For stubborn marks, a magic eraser can be effective, but test on an inconspicuous area first.
Shoe shape is lost
Use cedar wood shoe trees when the shoes are not being worn to absorb moisture and help maintain the shoe's original shape.
