Nike ACG Rufus - Black - UK 8

The upper of these Nike ACG Rufus sneakers is made from durable and stylish suede material.

While the ACG line is known for all-conditions gear, the suede material of these Rufus sneakers makes them best suited for dry to moderately damp conditions. Heavy rain or mud can damage suede, so consider applying a water-repellent spray for added protection.

To clean black suede, use a suede brush to remove loose dirt. For stains, gently rub with a suede eraser. For deeper cleaning, use a suede cleaner specifically designed for the material, following the product instructions carefully. Always allow them to air dry completely.

Info needed: Fit can vary by individual. Generally, Nike ACG models tend to fit true to standard Nike sizing. It's recommended to try them on to ensure the best fit.

The Nike ACG Rufus sneakers are designed primarily for everyday casual wear and urban exploration. While they feature durable ACG branding, they are not intended for rigorous hiking or heavy outdoor activities where more specialized performance footwear would be required, especially due to the suede material.

To protect the suede, it is highly recommended to apply a quality suede protector spray before wearing them for the first time. Reapply periodically as per the product's instructions to maintain effectiveness. Avoid prolonged exposure to heavy moisture.

Use a specialized suede brush to gently remove surface dirt and restore the nap. For tougher dirt, use a suede eraser before brushing. Consistent, light brushing after wear can prevent buildup.

Gently rub the scuff mark with a suede eraser or a clean pencil eraser. For liquid stains, blot immediately with a clean, dry cloth (do not rub). Allow to dry, then use a suede brush. For set-in stains, a dedicated suede cleaner may be necessary.

Ensure you have the correct size (this pair is UK 8). Wear them for short periods initially to allow the material to conform to your foot. If discomfort persists, consider trying different socks or consulting a footwear specialist for fit advice.

After cleaning, use a suede brush to gently brush the nap in multiple directions to lift and restore its texture. Steaming the area lightly (without soaking) can also help revive flattened suede before brushing.
