Cleaning a Suede Jacket

RE: Cleaning a Suede Jacket Post By Christine (Guest Post) (10/31/2008) I have tried the dry cleaning specialists more than once and they never get the jacket close to being clean. They can't even get the elbows clean. $50 for nothing!

The jacket is new and does not need cleaning at this point. What would you suggest doing so as to remove these marks? Thank you.

It's not cheap but if you keep your garment in good condition, you can get away with dry cleaning it once every two years. Do not smoke in your leather/suede coats. Smoke damage is one of the hardest things to remove. Don't wear it to the bar if you can help it. Do not use stain treatment, water, soap or Febreeze on your leathers. It could possibly stain or ruin the fabric. It could also make the dye run or change the color of the spot you used it on. Keep your jacket in a closet, preferrably in a zipped-up garment bag that will keep off dust, hair, children (ha ha), light and moisture. This will help keep your garment preserved during the months you don't wear it. Hope these tips help you out. Report Spam or Abuse
