What to Consider
Materials & Construction
- ·Suede — Softer and more flexible than full-grain leather, but more susceptible to stains and water damage. Not ideal for wet climates or heavy daily use.
- ·Made by FRANKIE4 in Australia.
Longevity & Care
- ·Suede — Apply a suede protector spray before first wear. Brush with a suede brush to restore nap. Avoid water and salt.
Cost Per Use
- ·Suede — Suede looks great but requires more maintenance and has a shorter effective lifespan than full-grain leather.
- ·Priced around $100 (midpoint of $50–$150 for Footwear). At ~15 uses/month, this hits the $1-per-use "worth it" mark in 7 months — and falls to roughly 11¢ per use across a 5-year lifespan.
