Suede is made from the underside of a leather hide while nubuck is made from the outer surface. Suede and Nubuck have similar high-grade qualities to full-grain leather. 

We recommend applying a suede and nubuck protectant before wearing your footwear for the first time. A suede brush can be used to remove dust and restore the nap after each use. Suede and nubuck should be kept away from large amounts of water due to its porous quality.
