FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, the suede material is not inherently waterproof and can be damaged by excessive moisture. It is recommended to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions.
How do I maintain the black color of the suede?
Regular brushing helps maintain the texture and color. Using a suede protector spray can also help prevent fading from sun exposure.
Can I wear these for sports?
These shoes are designed for casual wear and lifestyle. They do not offer the specialized support or cushioning required for most athletic activities.
What size should I order if I'm between sizes?
Vans generally fit true to size. If you are between sizes, consider your foot width. Many users find ordering their usual size to be appropriate.
How often should I clean my suede shoes?
It's best to brush them after each wear to remove surface dirt. Deeper cleaning or stain removal should be done as needed.
Can I put these in a washing machine?
No, machine washing is not recommended for suede shoes as it can damage the material and affect the shoe's structure.
Troubleshooting
Suede appears dirty or stained
Gently brush with a suede brush. For tougher stains, use a suede eraser or a dedicated suede cleaner, testing on an inconspicuous area first. Allow to air dry completely.
Shoes feel stiff initially
Wear them for short periods initially to break them in. Walking around the house can help them conform to your foot shape.
Laces become worn or dirty
Laces can be easily replaced. Clean them separately by hand washing or machine washing in a garment bag.
