1. They can generally be cleaned by rubbing them with a damp, lint-free cloth or a specialist suede brush. It's best to do this in straight motions but in different directions, as this will help remove dirt without pushing it deeper into the fibres.
2. The moisture from the damp cloth might temporarily darken the colour of the suede, but this should air-dry; while suede shoes aren’t waterproof, a damp cloth shouldn’t be enough to leave any visible marks.
3. If there are tough stains you’re struggling to remove or if you want to thoroughly clean the leather, a suede leather cleanser is a more powerful option. Ensure it’s intended for suede specifically to avoid doing damage and test the product on a small area first.
4. For a truly thorough clean, take your suede shoes to be professionally cleaned by a leather-cleaning expert.
5. For small scratches, rub your finger over it to try and buff it out. For slightly deeper scratches, you may need to apply some suede conditioner to the scratch and the surrounding area, then buff it out.
6. If that doesn’t work, take a suede brush and gently brush the leather fibres. This might adjust the fibres enough to cover the scratch and make it less visible. If the scratch is very big or deep, you may need to try a leather filler kit, or ideally take your suede shoes to a leather expert for them to work their magic.
7. As well as regularly cleaning and treating your suede shoes, how you store them is also important. They should be kept out of direct sunlight to prevent the colour from fading, and they should also be kept away from heat, such as radiators.
