Care Tips

Cleaning

• Use a dry, soft-bristled suede brush to gently remove dust and dirt after each wear. Brush the suede in a single direction to lift debris and keep the nap looking uniform and smooth.

Maintenance

• Before first wear, mist the upper of this shoe lightly with a high-quality suede protector spray. The protective spray forms an invisible barrier to help guard against light moisture and everyday marks. Reapply the suede protector every few months, especially if the shoe receives regular use, to maintain this level of protection.

Storage

• Store this shoe in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. Avoid prolonged sunlight to prevent the suede colour from fading. Use a breathable cotton dust bag or the original shoebox to prevent dust build-up and protect the buckle from scratches.

Troubleshooting

• Use a specialist suede eraser to gently tackle light scuffs or water marks on the upper. Rub the affected area very lightly, then restore the nap by brushing with your suede brush.

Additional Tips

• Suede is naturally porous, so it is best to keep this shoe away from heavy rain or wet environments. If the shoe does become damp, let it dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid placing it near direct heat sources such as radiators, as this can cause the suede to dry out and stiffen.
