Suede doesn’t need to shine to stand out. It’s subtle by nature — soft, matte, and quietly confident. That same softness, though, means it’s more exposed to marks and moisture. It doesn’t resist the world so much as it absorbs it. But with calm, consistent care, suede holds its texture and charm for years.
The key is to treat it like something living: never rushed, never rubbed, always coaxed back into form.
Let It Settle
The nap of suede is what gives it that signature feel — and that’s exactly what needs protecting. Avoid moisture whenever possible. When surface marks appear, use a suede brush to gently lift the fibres and even out the texture. Don’t rub or scrub. If the glove gets damp, reshape it gently and allow it to dry at room temperature — never under heat.
Care Method
Brush lightly with a suede brush to lift marks and restore texture. If wet, blot gently with a clean cloth, reshape, and air dry in a shaded, ventilated space. Never expose to direct heat or store compressed.
When Texture Needs Restoring
If the nap becomes flattened or stained, or the glove loses its structure, a professional suede specialist can safely revive the surface without damaging the finish.
