Troubleshooting
Suede looking dull or dirty
Use a suede brush to lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For stubborn stains, apply a small amount of specialized suede cleaner with a clean cloth and allow to dry, then brush again.
Leather Formstrip scuffed
Gently wipe with a damp cloth. For minor scuffs, a leather conditioner might help restore the appearance, but avoid excessive polishing that could alter the original finish.
Gum sole discoloration
Clean the soles with a damp cloth and mild soap. For yellowing, specialized sole cleaners can be used, but test on an inconspicuous area first.
