Troubleshooting

Velvet material looks matted or dull

Gently brush the velvet with a soft-bristled brush in the direction of the nap to restore its texture and sheen.

Light scuffs on the velvet

Try to gently buff out minor scuffs with a clean, dry cloth. For tougher marks, a specialized velvet cleaner might be necessary, but test on an inconspicuous area first.

Shoes feel slightly tight

Wear them with thicker socks around the house for a short period to allow the material to stretch slightly. Avoid wearing them in wet conditions as this can alter the velvet's structure.
