1. cleaning suede leather

Suede leather (also known as suede) refers to all suede-like leathers with a velvety, textured or roughened surface. This makes them more susceptible to soiling than smooth leather, but they are still easy to maintain. The gentle use of a suede sponge helps to remove dust and minor soiling.

①

Do not leave the shoes to dry, but clean them immediately under lukewarm water with the brush mentioned above. Moisten the entire shoe to avoid marks. Please remove the laces before cleaning and also clean them.

②

Stubborn stains can be removed with a special cleaning rubber, such as our 'FLECK-WEG' cleaning rubber..

③

For grease stains, we have another home remedy tip for you: first dab with a paper towel (do not rub!), then spray the stain with a dry shampoo, leave to work and finally gently comb out again with a suede brush.

As with any shoe, the following applies in particular to open-pored suede: regular cleaning and care are worthwhile! Especially because neglect can cause the fine leather fibers on the surface to become unsightly and smooth. By repeatedly roughening the fibers with a soft suede or cleaning rubber, you can easily prevent this and maintain the elegant, velvety look.

2. care for suede leather

After you have removed dirt from your suede shoes by brushing or using water, you should only use care products when the shoes are dry and ideally with a wooden shoe tree.

①

After cleaning, apply our suede care spray. This protects the leather quality and provides solid basic protection for color and appearance. Give the spray some time to develop its effect in the fibers of the surface.

②

Finally, brush on gently and impregnate with 'Power Protector'.
