    I have avoided suede/nubuck shoes and boots since I’ve been old enough to buy my own because I figured I would get them all stained and jacked up, and there was nothing to do other than treat them gingerly like they were fragile.
    Loving this channel, and I’m learning enough to significantly change my habits around footwear.

    Sometimes the blue "ink" eraser ends work to remove minor stains. They never erase ink on paper, but I find on some suede, it works!
    This is a cheaper, quick alternative. Of course, the actual Saphir eraser will do far better.

      Trenton & Heath One question though. I’ve seen videos where after shampooing the shoes they rinse them directly with water. What do you think about that? Is it ok, or you just remove the shampoo with a cloth or something?

    • @TrentonHeath
      @TrentonHeath  4 года назад +4

      LegendaryADMG I’ve seen folks do that, but we’ve always removed the soap and all with a cloth. I’m guessing if the shoes are muddy, dunking them in water to rinse them off may be the better bet.

    Looks like Trenton is right again. Bought their suede brush. Started using it very lightly with no result. Added a little pressure gradually and I'll be darned if it didn't work on the suede boots. Lifted and took the stain out. Must drive his family and friends nuts if he's always right about everything.

Not for suede of course, but I use it on pretty much everything else including my full quill ostrich, caiman, and even nubuck. It's not recommended for the nubuck and it does change the color and feel but I don't mind. I even used it to condition my lamb skin gloves and leather wallet. I've been using it for a few years now and have been happy with the results. I'm just curious as to what it's reputation is among true industry professionals.
