How do I clean suede sneakers?

Answer by  MelindaS (1694)

Depending on what is on your sneakers, you will use a variety of cleaning methods. If you have just minor dirt, you can use a slightly damp soft cloth to rub it gently. For more serious stains, you can use a small amount of vinegar diluted with water.

Using a shoe brush or an old toothbrush, brush all the loose dirt off the sneakers that you can. It's better not to use any liquid, but if they're hopelessly dirty, then use a washcloth or towel, wet it and use dishwashing detergent, and gently rub stains.

Try reading the tag first. Some suede sneakers can be put in the washing machine as where some can not. The best suggestion i have is use a suede shoe cleaner. If you don't have suede shoe cleaner you can also use suede furniture cleaner. This is what i use on my suede shoes.

Woolite and soft cloth, rub in circular motion until spot is removed. Set out of sun and Heat to dry, the brush with a Bristle brush gently to raise the nap again. There are other products for clenaing if the stain is oily, the main point is not to dry with heat and brush the nap up again.

Suede sneakers can be very difficult to clean, the biggest problem is that suede should not get wet so applying water to clean suede will actually make it worse. The best way to keep suede sneakers clean, or any suede products, is to apply a suede sealant spray to suede before wearing to repel stains.
