Known for its velvety, soft surface, suede is more delicate than regular leather and requires a little more attention.
• Suede is sensitive to water and moisture, so consider applying a suede protector spray to your suede items before wearing them. Avoid wearing suede in wet conditions. If your suede accidentally becomes wet, let it air dry naturally at room temperature.
• To remove dust and restore the nap of suede leather, use a soft suede brush or cloth and gently brush your item in the direction of the fibers.
• If your suede item gets stained, use a specialized suede eraser or a soft white eraser to gently rub the stain. For oil-based stains, try sprinkling talcum powder or cornstarch on the stain to absorb the oil. Wait a few hours, then brush off the powder.
• For stubborn stains or scuffs, hold the stained area over steam (not too close) to lift the stain. Brush the suede afterward.
• For deep cleaning or tough stains, consider taking your suede items to a professional cleaner experienced in suede and leather care.
• Store suede items in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Use a breathable dust bag or pillowcase to protect them from dust and maintain their appearance.
• Maintain the shape of suede bags by stuffing them with newspaper while they dry or when storing them for a long time. Keep them away from sun light.
