Troubleshooting
Suede appears matted or dull
Use a suede brush to gently lift the nap and restore its texture. Brush in one direction for a uniform finish.
Minor scuffs or marks on suede
Try using a suede eraser to gently rub out the mark. For stubborn marks, a stiff brush might help.
Water spots on suede
Allow the shoe to dry naturally away from heat. Once dry, use a suede brush to restore the texture. If a stain remains, professional cleaning is recommended.
Slightly tight fit
Suede can stretch slightly with wear. Wear them around the house with socks for a short period to allow them to mold to your foot. Shoe trees can also help maintain shape and slightly widen the shoe over time.
