Materials & Care - Asteria Suede

Our very own Asteria suede has been specifically developed to have a suede leather to make quality shoes that does not require a second layer of lining, that naturally stretches to adapt to the wearer and to show a luxurious velvety nap. We use only a prime selection of Mediterranean lambs that are slowly tanned by an artisanal family run tannery.

A slow tannage that uses traditional ingredients and no aggressive chemicals allowing the skins to dry naturally is the secret to the unique properties of this suede. Our Asteria suede is made on the reverse of a full grain skin so that on the inside of our shoes we can directly show the natural full grain side without having to stiffen the shoe by adding a layer of lining leather.

After use always allow the shoes to dry at room temperature, away from direct heat. If your shoes have got wet, you may roll-up some paper and insert it inside the shoes. If you have dirt or mud on your suede shoes, make sure they are completely dry before brushing with suede brush.
