How do you care for Asteria suede?

Follow our suggestions  to extend the lifespan of your Baudoin & Lange Asteria Suede loafers and boots. Using a soft, dry cloth, clean the leather on a regular basis. Water and harsh cleaning products should be avoided as they can damage this kind of suede. Use a top quality suede conditioner to keep the material supple and prevent it from drying out.

Keep the loafers and boots away from water and direct heat, as these can cause it to dry out and stiffen. When not in use, keep your shoes in a cool, dry place. If Asteria suede products become dirty or stained, gently wipe away the dirt with a soft, damp cloth and a mild soap. Harsh chemicals and abrasive cleaning materials should be avoided as they can harm the leather.

Allow the Asteria Suede to air dry naturally if it becomes wet. Heat should not be used to dry the leather because it will become stiff and brittle. Our Asteria Suede is sourced from responsible and sustainable practices, and most importantly, our tanning processes strictly meet social and environmental standards. 

Why can you wear our Asteria suede loafers and boots in the rain?

If wet, let them dry naturally and keep them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Avoid storing them in damp or humid environments. We highly recommend you to follow our care tips to extend the lifespan of your asteria suede shoes, remember they need some love over time.
