Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your 990v3 maintains its premium look, store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can fade the suede pigment. Because the upper is primarily composed of suede, it is highly recommended to apply a suede-specific water and stain repellent spray before the first use. If the shoes get wet, air dry them naturally at room temperature—never use a direct heat source like a radiator, as this can cause the material to shrink or stiffen. For routine cleaning, use a soft-bristled suede brush to gently remove loose dust and debris. If stubborn stains occur, use a specialized suede eraser or a light cleaning solution formulated specifically for nubuck and suede materials, taking care to test a small, inconspicuous area first.
