FAQs

What type of socks are best with these shoes?

Thin to medium-weight dress socks or casual socks in complementary colors are recommended. Avoid very thick socks, which can make the shoes feel tight.

Can I wear these shoes in the rain?

It is not recommended to wear suede shoes in the rain as water can stain and damage the material. Always treat them with a suede protector for water resistance, but avoid prolonged exposure to wet conditions.

How often should I apply suede protector?

Apply a suede protector spray before the first wear and reapply every few months, or after cleaning, to ensure continued protection.

Are these shoes suitable for standing all day?

While designed for comfort, they are classic driver shoes. For all-day standing, consider adding an insole for extra cushioning if needed.

How do I store my suede shoes when not in use?

Store them in a cool, dry place, ideally with shoe trees inserted to maintain their shape. Keep them away from direct sunlight and moisture.

What is the main difference between these and leather shoes?

Suede shoes have a napped finish, offering a softer, more casual look compared to the smoother finish of leather shoes. Suede also requires more specialized care.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dull or dirty.

Use a suede brush to gently brush the nap and lift away surface dirt. For stubborn marks, try a suede eraser.

Shoes got wet.

Allow the shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat. Once dry, brush the suede to restore its texture.

Discoloration from scuffs.

Gently rub the affected area with a suede eraser. If the scuff is deep, a suede brush may help lift the nap and blend the color.

Loss of shape.

Insert shoe trees into the shoes when not in use to help maintain their original shape and absorb moisture.
