General care tips for suede

The best way to deal with suede is to care for it well. A suede garment will give you many years of wear if you look after it well.
Always clean suede before storing it for any length of time.
Suede can be brushed with a soft rubber or bristle brush, or a wire suede brush. Do not rub too hard and do it in a gentle circular motion.
Never use chemical fluid or spot remover on suede as the colour of the garment will run and you will actually get light rings around the stain.

Too little too late Comments By: Unhappy Susan

I was looking for a way to clean suede after it was durty. This didn't help at all! I'm home, I need it clean now not after I go to the store and purchase cleaning fluid. I tried that and couldn't find a store with anything that cleans suede.
