Troubleshooting

Suede appears dirty or stained

Use a suede brush to gently remove dry dirt. For tougher stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner and follow the product's instructions. Test any cleaner on an inconspicuous area first.

Shoes feel slightly loose

As these are slip-on shoes, a slight looseness can occur. Consider using insoles or thicker socks for a snugger fit if needed. If the fit is significantly off, check if a different size is available.

Discomfort during prolonged wear

Ensure you have the correct size. If the issue persists, consider adding supportive insoles designed for loafers or casual shoes.

Water damage to suede

If the suede gets wet, allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat. Once dry, use a suede brush to restore the texture. Consider using a suede protector spray to help prevent future water damage.
