Troubleshooting
Suede color appears uneven after cleaning
Allow the suede to dry completely. Use a suede brush to gently restore the nap and even out the color. If the issue persists, consider a suede-specific color restorer.
Laces fraying or wearing out
Replace laces with a similar style of flat cotton laces. Ensure the new laces are the appropriate length for the shoe.
Slight discomfort in the heel area
Ensure socks are worn to prevent friction. If discomfort persists, consider using heel grips or insoles for added cushioning.
Suede getting wet
Blot excess water immediately with a clean, dry cloth. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat. Once dry, brush the suede to restore its texture.
