Mix & Match With Suede

Suede is a highly valued material for shoe production, known for its softness, elegant texture, and versatility. Unlike traditional leather, which has a smooth surface, suede is made from the underside of the animal hide, giving it a unique, velvety finish that adds a touch of luxury to any pair of shoes.

One of suede's most appealing characteristics is its softness. The fine texture not only feels pleasant to the touch but also provides a more flexible and lightweight shoe. This makes suede footwear comfortable to wear, particularly for casual or semi-formal occasions where comfort is a priority. The material’s soft finish also contributes to an understated elegance, making it a popular choice for refined, stylish designs.

Unlike the smoother leather surfaces, suede is more prone to staining and water damage, which means regular maintenance is required to preserve its appearance. Despite this, modern treatments and protective sprays have made it easier to protect suede shoes from the elements, making them more practical for everyday use.

Suede is an animal product. The suede we use at Lola Ramona for our "Mix & Match" concept is: Lux suede ( Goat )

We've gathered some of our previous sneakers featuring suede in the images below for inspiration. Please note that the colors in our Mix & Match collection change periodically, so the available colors may vary.
