5. Care and Maintenance
Proper care will extend the life and appearance of your GUESS Naska Pumps.
5.1. Cleaning
- Faux Patent Leather Upper: Gently wipe the surface with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust and dirt. For stubborn marks, use a mild soap solution and a soft cloth, then wipe clean with a separate damp cloth and dry immediately. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the patent finish.
- Sole Material (Ethylene Vinyl Acetate): Can be cleaned with a damp cloth.
- Decorative Chain and Charms: Use a dry, soft cloth to gently polish and remove any dust. Avoid exposure to water, perfumes, or lotions which can cause tarnishing.
5.2. Storage
Store your pumps in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Use shoe trees or stuff the toes with tissue paper to help maintain their shape. Keep them in their original box or a breathable shoe bag to protect them from dust and scratches.

6. Troubleshooting
| Issue | Possible Cause / Solution |
|---|---|
| Uncomfortable Fit | Ensure the slingback strap is adjusted correctly. If the shoe feels too tight, consider wearing them for short periods initially to allow them to conform to your foot. If discomfort persists, verify the size against the provided size guide. |
| Scratches or Scuffs on Patent Leather | Minor scuffs on patent leather can sometimes be buffed out with a soft cloth and a small amount of patent leather cleaner. For deeper scratches, professional repair may be necessary. |
| Charms or Chain Discoloration | Gently clean the metal charms and chain with a dry, soft jewelry polishing cloth. Avoid exposure to water, perfumes, or lotions which can cause tarnishing. |
