Troubleshooting

Suede appears dull or dirty

Use a suede brush to gently restore the nap and remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, consult specialized suede cleaning guides.

Shoes feel too tight

Wear thicker socks around the house to help stretch the shoes, or consider using a shoe stretcher. Suede can stretch slightly over time with wear.
