The sneakers are primarily made of 100% smooth calfskin leather with a contrasting black suede heel counter. The sole is made of 100% rubber.
How do I clean the suede heel counter?
Use a clean, dry suede brush to gently remove dirt and restore the nap. For stains, use a suede-specific cleaner, testing it on a small area first.

Troubleshooting
Laces feel too loose or too tight.
Adjust the flat laces through the eyelets to achieve a secure yet comfortable fit. Ensure the knot is tied firmly.
Scuffs or dirt on the white leather.
Gently wipe the affected area with a slightly damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a specialized leather cleaner and follow product instructions. Test cleaner on an inconspicuous area first.
Suede heel counter looks worn or dirty.
Use a clean, dry suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove surface dust. For stains, use a suede-specific cleaner and follow the product guidelines.
