Care Tips

To preserve the subtle woven texture and serene sky blue finish of the Schuberts Osaka 151 Sky, a thoughtful care routine is advised. Regular upkeep will help maintain their elegant appearance and comfort across the seasons.

Cleaning

• Routine Dusting: Gently brush the woven suede upper with a soft-bristled shoe brush after each wear. This helps lift dust and dry debris from the basket-weave pattern without damaging the surface.

• Spot Cleaning: For minor marks, use a dry or very slightly damp, soft cloth to dab the affected area gently. Avoid vigorous rubbing or exposing the suede to excess moisture, as this may alter the material or finish.

Maintenance

• Protection: Apply a high-quality, neutral suede protector spray before first wear. This helps shield the delicate weave and sky blue suede from everyday moisture and light stains. Reapply the protector spray periodically, particularly if the flats are worn frequently.

• Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain the freshness of the sky blue colour and the soft texture of the woven suede.
