Troubleshooting

Suede discoloration or spotting

Use a suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaner. For water spots, allow the shoe to dry naturally away from heat, then brush with a suede brush.

Laces becoming dirty

Remove laces and hand wash with mild soap and water, or place them in a mesh laundry bag and machine wash on a delicate cycle.

General dirt on the shoe

Brush off loose dirt with a dry suede brush. For more stubborn dirt, use a slightly damp cloth, ensuring not to oversaturate the suede. Allow to air dry.
