How to clean your suede sneakers

Suede looks great and cleans up better than you think.

Dry first

Let the shoe dry naturally. Never use a heater.

Brush the nap

Use a soft suede brush in one direction to lift the dirt.

Erase the marks

A suede eraser rubs out scuffs. For stains, a drop of white vinegar on a cloth works wonders.

Protect with a spray before the first wear.

Store them well

Shoe trees or crumpled paper keep the shape.
