What You Need:

1. Hard-bristle suede brush 2. Paper towels and microfiber cloth 3. White vinegar or rubbing alcohol 4. Protectant spray 5. Suede or pencil eraser 6. Old razor

1. let them dry

Never clean suede when it's wet. If your shoes are damp, use a towel or paper towels to absorb the wetness from the fabric.

2. brush them

Using a firm-bristle suede brush, gently rub the shoe’s surface in the suede's natural direction to scrape the grime off the top layer.

3. use an eraser to rub out stains

Use a suede rubber or a regular pencil eraser to remove stains or scuffs that are deeper in the suede.

4. use white vinegar for difficult stains

Dampen a microfiber cloth in white vinegar or rubbing alcohol and firmly scrub it over the stain in a back-and-forth motion.

5. fluff with a razor and a brush

Use an old razor to shave loose strings of fabric away. After smoothing down the fabric, use a brush to fluff it up.

6. apply a suede protectant spray

Make sure to spray your shoes all over and according to package directions.

That's it!
