The upper features premium suede layers, specifically 'Timberwolf' and 'Linen' suede, combined with leather. The sole is synthetic.
How should I clean the suede parts of the shoes?

Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or small
As the product runs small, consider exchanging for a half or full size up. Ensure your foot is measured correctly.
Suede appears dirty or stained
Use a dedicated suede brush to carefully clean the affected area. For tougher stains, a suede cleaner might be necessary, always test on an inconspicuous area first.
Laces are difficult to tie or come undone
Ensure the laces are threaded correctly through the eyelets. Try a double knot for a more secure tie.
