Getting suede trainers wet can damage their appearance and texture. Water can cause suede to lose its soft, velvety surface, leading to stains and possibly even shrinking. To avoid this, dry them slowly at room temperature away from direct heat sources. Use a suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove dirt once they are dry. For future protection, consider applying a water-repellent spray specifically designed for suede.
