Grasshoppers Trent Moccasins | Suede Denim

The Grasshoppers Trent Moccasin features a new wraparound crepe sole which has been added to our classic moccasin silhouette, adding a bit of height, wider sole support, and finished with refined stitching.

Proudly South African Since 1966

Few shoes carry the iconic legacy of Grasshoppers Moccasins and there’s a reason they’ve earned their place in the heart of every Mzansi home. It’s in the unmistakable scent of genuine leather, the soft honest comfort that moulds around your foot; from the playground, to the office, to the stoep. They are the shoes our oupas swear by, the ones umalume still polishes with pride, the ones that carry us through school, skew and sideways.

How to Clean your Suede Grasshoppers?

Suede has a delicate, refined texture that can stain easily and requires gentle care. Use a brush with gentle bristles to remove the excess dirt before applying suede cleaner and leaving to dry out of the sun.

Some tried and tested remedies from the community include:

• mix equal parts white vinegar to water
• gently brush off with soft bristles (like a toothbrush)
• do not soak or make shoe too damp
• avoid drying in direct heat or sun
