Care Instructions:

  1. Avoid wearing in wet or muddy conditions to prevent permanent suede staining.
  2. Use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dirt and dust after each use.
  3. If the shoes become wet, air dry them naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent material hardening.
  4. Apply a protective suede spray to repel future stains and light moisture.
