Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your suede Alina Flex pumps, follow these guidelines:
- Suede Protection: Apply a high-quality suede protector spray before the first wear to create a barrier against moisture and dirt.
- Cleaning: Use a specialized suede brush to remove surface dust and revive the nap of the material. Avoid using water or standard cleaning soaps, as these can permanently damage the texture.
- Storage: Keep the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can fade the beige coloring. Use shoe trees or light stuffing to maintain the pump's shape when not in use.
- Rotation: Avoid wearing the same pair of shoes two days in a row to allow the materials to air out.
