Care Instructions for Suede
Proper care is essential to maintain the appearance and longevity of your suede trainers. Suede is a delicate material that can be sensitive to water and stains.
- Pre-Treatment (Recommended): Before first wear, apply a high-quality suede and nubuck protector spray. Follow the product's instructions carefully. This helps repel water and prevent stains.
- Regular Cleaning: Use a soft suede brush to gently brush off dirt and dust. Always brush in one direction to maintain the nap.
- Spot Cleaning: For minor stains, use a suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaning kit. Gently rub the affected area. Avoid harsh rubbing.
- Water Exposure: Try to avoid wearing your trainers in heavy rain or wet conditions. If they do get wet, stuff them with paper towels to absorb moisture and allow them to air dry naturally, away from direct heat.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Consider using shoe trees to help maintain their shape.
- Avoid: Do not machine wash, tumble dry, or use harsh chemical cleaners, as these can damage the suede.
