Keep your Maggiore Brown Hairy Suede M looking sharp with a simple care routine and styling tips for the hairy suede low hiker.
Quick answer
Brush your Maggiore Brown Hairy Suede M regularly with a soft suede brush, protect it with a suede-safe spray before wearing, and spot-clean stains promptly with a suede eraser or damp cloth. For styling, let the hairy texture stand out by pairing it with neutral or earthy tones.
Why hairy suede needs a different touch
Hairy suede has a longer, looser nap than smooth suede, so it traps dust and absorbs liquids more readily. Regular brushing lifts the fibers and prevents matting, while a protective spray creates a barrier without altering the texture. Avoid saturating the suede with water or harsh cleaners, which can flatten the nap and cause discoloration.
Styling the Maggiore: let the texture lead
The Maggiore's rich brown hairy suede and cleated Vibram sole make it a natural match for casual, outdoor-inspired outfits. Keep the rest of your look simple to let the shoe's texture shine: think dark denim, wool trousers, or neutral chinos. For a relaxed weekend outfit, pair with a plain tee and a chore jacket. Avoid overly formal or brightly patterned clothing that competes with the shoe's character.
Step-by-step care for your Maggiore
- Brush regularly: Use a soft suede brush or a clean, dry toothbrush to gently brush the hairy suede in one direction. This removes loose dirt and lifts the nap. Do this after each wear, especially if the shoes got dusty. Checkpoint: brush gently to avoid pulling out the hairs.
- Protect before wearing: Apply a suede-safe protective spray to clean, dry shoes in a well-ventilated area. Hold the can 6-8 inches away and spray evenly. Let dry completely before wearing. Reapply every few weeks or after cleaning. Checkpoint: test the spray on a small hidden area first to ensure it doesn't darken the suede.
- Spot-clean stains: For dry stains, use a suede eraser or a fine-grit sandpaper (like 400-grit) to gently rub the stain away. For liquid stains, blot immediately with a clean cloth, then let dry naturally away from heat. For stubborn stains, use a damp cloth with a tiny amount of mild soap, but avoid soaking the suede. Checkpoint: never rub vigorously—work gently to avoid damaging the nap.
- Dry properly: If your shoes get wet, stuff them with newspaper or shoe trees to absorb moisture and maintain shape. Let them air dry at room temperature, away from direct heat or sunlight. Never use a hair dryer or radiator. Checkpoint: drying too quickly can crack the suede.
- Store with care: When not wearing, store your Maggiore in a cool, dry place. Use shoe trees to keep their shape and a dust bag to protect from dust. Avoid plastic bags, which trap moisture. Checkpoint: proper storage prevents mildew and keeps the suede supple.
