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.
Excellent video! I have a couple suede shoes and have always been intimidated on how to take care of them. More prepared now.
Thanks Trent! I am inspired, and feeling like I can do suede. Had a pair in high school and had no idea how to care for those boots, but now I am looking at some oxfords and I am feeling more confident with your guides. Thanks!
Excellent information! Exactly what I was looking for!
Awesome video!
You guys rock. You're website has most of the cleaning accessories in stock and affordable shipping prices. Wish I could've got the Suede bundle but had to buy everything separately.
Badda bing badda boom, really appreciate your clear, simplicity and enumerated approach 😁.
I’ve been looking for suede cleaning info for a while... and coming from you guys... I’m ready now!
Good deal! Glad it helped. 👍🏻
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?
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.
@@TrentonHeath Thank you!
I’ve learned a lot from your videos. Thank you.
Saw this channel two weeks ago and watched all the videos. Subscribed at 9.6K. Channel is at 17.5k right now. Keep up the great work Guys. Been waiting for this one
M Mi Thanks so much! We’re ticking up little by little. 😉 We appreciate you following along and watching. Glad you’re enjoying them.
Thanks needed this awesome channel 👍
You’re welcome! We appreciate you watching and commenting!
I absolutely REFUSE to believe your channel has so little subscribers. If these weekly videos keep being churned it's only a matter of time before you start to reach hundreds of thousand of subs.
I've just now started to wear quality boots at the ripe age of 22 and am thankful for such informative and educational content.
Don't stop being awesome guys.
We really appreciate the kind comments, Salvador! We really enjoy what we do, and putting out content for you all is so much fun. Our channel continues to grow, so hopefully we’ll be in the hundreds of thousands before we know it. Again, a big thank you to guys like you for watching!!
Probably because Bedo's Leatherworks has taken most of the other potential subscribers. FTR, I'm subscribed to both.
At 230k subscribers now.
you were right!
Awesome video as always 👍
Keep‘em coming
Thanks, Michael! Glad you enjoyed.
Thanks for a very helpful video.
Great video! Thank you!
My go-to guys for all things shoes. Great video.
Love my black suede cowboy boots was always scared to ware them in bad weather not anymore get a lot of compliments compliments thanks for the cleaning tips
Good info..thanks
Thanks for a very helpful video! I recently bought a pair of chelsea boots in oiled or greasy suede, and have had a hard time finding information on how to care for them. Maybe you guys could do a video? Cheers from Sweden!
I was just hoping for a video about this!
I'm no longer afraid of buying suede shoes thanks to you guys!
Thank you and order placed!
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.
I officially feel I’m adulting hard core purchasing suede shampoo, condition, and a brush
I’m about to get it for my work boots.
Amazing 😎👌👍👍 Big thanks❗️
I have been wondering about conditioning suede for years. I just assumed you couldn’t. Very informative video!
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.
Thank you!
Love all your videos. I have an unrelated or maybe slightly related question. What do you recommend to use when caring for Horween waxed flesh leather boots?
As always, great information! Did you say that the Renovateur conditioner could also be used on the Thursday line of boots that are considered the "Rugged and Resilient" line?
Thursday says you don't really need to condition these boots just brush off with a horse hair brush and a wet cloth??
Thanks to your video, I bought some affordable suede boots knowing that I can maintain them and bring them back to like-new-ish after each "oops" which will happen to them.
Thankfully everything is also in stock on your store right now so I can get them protected before wearing them outside.
Oh sweet, the suede kit is in stock and a better deal. Yes!
Thank you for a grate video. Trenton should I use the same products on my AE McTavish Waxed suede? I would like to nourish and conditioning them before first use.
Not even bothering to comment on this video's quality or content. If Trenton or Heath say to do something then I do it. So going to place an order for the suggested products since my nubucks would probably piss off Trenton if he saw them.
thepowderriverfarrier Haha...nah, we’d never be pissed at you. Hope you get those nubucks cleaned up though. 😉
Ohh. Do you have before and after pictures?
thepowderriverfarrier I don’t question a thing they tell me. It’s gospel.
Great video - thanks for the information. Like to suggest that you do a video on how to clean and care for minimalist leather sneakers. I just purchased a pair of Crown Northampton white whole cuts and would like advice on how to keep them looking new. Thanks and keep the videos coming
Paul Hughes We’ll do that. Thanks for the suggestion!
Just wear them or your not a minimalist
I wear a lot of suede boots, and I clean them with Johnsons baby wipes, air dry and then use a suede brush. Does a great job and no spray chemicals ! 🌍🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🌍
I thought stuff like that was bad for your suede? I have 1300$ louboutins I'm not risking my suede ruining with my daughters wipes lol I'ma just buy what's made for it.
Thanks for another very informative video. Just wondering if brushing suede shoes removes some or all of the suede conditioner and/or waterproofing that was on the shoe before I brushed it. In other words, should conditioner and waterproofing be reapplied after brushing with a good suede brush?
Trenton - you guys are so amazing ! So much of right information. Big thanks to heath also !
I recently bought a pair of suede boots. I bought the Renovateur spray, but does it also waterproof or do I need to get a separate waterproof spray? My boots are in the box until I get the right tools to take care of them. I'm learning so much about shoe care from your videos, thank you so much for making them!
Thank you for great infomation. How about tarrago nubuck suede renovator? Do u think its quaility as well as saphir renovator? Thank you.
Thank you :)
You’re welcome!
Thanks🙏🏽 so much for this video...I have a question about the shampoo item I see the one's you have but is Lincoln EZ Cleaner a good one to use as well? Thanks again
Hi Trenton, I have a pair of Midnight Suede Captain's on the way from Thursday. Their suede is a weathersafe product, they sell some Cobbler's Choice products to care for them. Do you have any experience with Thursday's Suede and any recommendations to care for them? Thanks for your time and videos.
Good no know all this. I just ordered some really nice suede chelsea boots...and as I've never spent that much money on a shoe before, I want to protect them as much as possible.
Preciate you guys! Just picked up some waxed suede Alllen Edmonds. Should I treat them like regular suede? Do they need conditioned out of the box, Do I wax them in the future?
Works!
Hey mate great vid
I’m planning to use these products on black suade motorcycle seat with gold stitching, should I get the black conditioner or neutral one, regarding the gold stitching
Cheers
Hi, do you have any tips on how to remove waterstains from suede and Nubuk?
i have a pair of nubuck timberland boots, after a small accident, one boot has a small chip on the toe part, could I use sandpaper to sand the nubuck down in the damaged part to make it even with the rest of the boot ? thank you for the great video
Have you tried these on tods loafers? I would love to see of these change the color
Say what!?! AFCENT Lions in the house. I came across this video to clean a pair of shoes and surprise surprise, it’s Trent and dang ol Heath. Awesome job guys!
Haha…what’s going on?!!Unfortunately, I didn’t see your comment, but my folks did and sent me a screenshot. Yeah, man, Heath and I have had this channel for a few years now. Trying to change the footwear world one shoe at a time. 😁 I hope our video helped.
This was great, very timely. I am currently standing at parade rest awaiting some suede oxfords being made in Spain right now. I will trot right on out and purchase some of these items for use upon arrival of the shoes.
Leroy Barker 👍🏻👍🏻
Is this kind of care ideal for the redwing 8085 copper rough and tough?
Hi, this video was very helpful. I have a black pair of suede boots. I do not think I spilled anything on them and there are no visible stains you can see. Should I still clean them with a suede shampoo at least once a year?
What you recommend for waxed commander boots? Any conditioner required.
I've been looking for tips on how to treat stains on a nubuck jacket. Would these products be good for jackets too?
Late to the video, but is a pig bristle brush a good substitute for the suede brushes mentioned here, or should I also get one of these suede brushes with the metal fibers?
Would you recommend the same treatment on a suede/cowhide jacket?
I've used vinegar to clean suede. Just rub it on, let it dry and finish with a good brushing. Does the job well.
Does it smell?
Is it possible to recolor my nubuck wheat colored timberlands with the dark brown renovatour? What are your thoughts?
How would you condition Thursday boots rugged leathers? They have on their website not to use cleaning or protective products and just a wet rag and horse hair brush. I like to keep my boots in best shape and feel I should use something.
If you wanted to change the colour and also condition your suede would the renovateur be pigmented enough to cover a different colour? I have faded red shoes that are dry and I want them to be brown and more supple.
Can this apply to white suede as well? I recently ordered a pair of white sneakers that are made with suede.
Are the metal bristles more likely to damage the suede than the natural bristles?
Hi, I have just left a comment on one of your videos regarding an Ostrich leather strap and how to protect it. I use the Tarrago nano spray for my suede shoes, would the Tarrago spray be alright to use for the watch strap?
What about using mink oil as a conditioner?
I bought a pair of Allen Edmond Nuemok's (Alcorn/Hillfire) colorway. I'm not sure it's nubuck or distressed leather. I want to get it back to its original colorway. Looks like the previous owner darkened the leather with a conditioner. I plan on sending them to you to get re-soled. What Saphir product do you recommend? Thank you
With the shampoo what brush do u use ?
Does suede need to be nourished like regular non-nubuck/suede leather in order to avoid cracks and other issues that happen when regular leather isn't oiled, waxed, etc?
I have a pair of parkhurst waxy commander (suede). Would the oregon trail boot wax work well
Hey Guys! I love your videos and i need your help. I dont live in the US and i have a Courma guy Timberlands Rust color but is not the regular Nubuck or suade. But has some velvety look and feeling. The regular shampoo has take some color out plus took the velvety texture (i have tried in the back of the boots) but im not sure if your steps and products that you mentioned on this video fix the problem (they look amazing and i dont want to lose these characteristics, there is no videos on this texture) please help me
Are you using the black or neutral in the renovatuer spray? I have new black suede boots I want to care for.
Have you heard of and if so do you have an opinion on Cadillac boot & shoe leather lotion. 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.
Hi there. I used the angelus Nubuck shampoo on my timberlands (dark grey) and some patches of color have come off revealing a dull colorless base in certain parts. I was very gentle in my application and scrub so not sure what went wrong. Since the color is quite unique I’m unable to find a colored conditioning spray that goes with it. What would you recommend?
Don’t forget to mask tape your soles when using the color conditioner!
I have a nubuck leather jacket. Would you use the same products in the same manner?
What do you recommend for leather soles on moccasins?
Should I be concerned about the waterproofing spray darkening light beige suede?
Can you use dove dish soap to clean suede or nubuck boots? I heard it can be used on leather boots
can you please tell me how to remove tarrago nano tech after applied to the shoes?
How do you remove the colored renovateur from the white rubber soles (midsole)?
What's the difference between the medaille d'or super invulner and the regular Saphir invulner?
Should one use Saphir conditioner on suede soles?
How log does the waterproof lasts on the shoes?
I have boots with walnut oil tanned smooth uppers and roughout lowers. How do I condition the lowers( roughout) and not change the color because I like the contrast?
great video! thanks. You mentioned the Saphir Invulner lasts 'a while.' Is that months? Weeks? Days? I know it depends on usage too.
Blayne Cooper It definitely depends upon how often you wear the shoes. If you’re wearing them a few times a week, especially in rain, etc., I’d say a couple of times a month. If you wear them occasionally, once a month would be fine.
How often should one condition their suede shoes?
Hey my man I just got a brand new pair of I guess you'd call them military-style combat boots. Assault boots. Their desert tan waterproof high boot made from suede. For material that looks very similar. I want to do my best to protect these Boots so I haven't worn them even though it's a month past Christmas.
Hi does it work on black timberland? Cuz my black timberland the color turning black into green
How does the suede brushes with brass bristles differ from the stiff boar bristle suede brushes? Is one better for certain suedes than the other? How about crepe brushes?
I just bought a Radford timberland boots. Why is there moist and water inside after I walk on the snow? I will appreciate your answer
Do they have a conditioner for midnight navy color or if doesn’t matter if i use black for midnight navy colorway?
So I imagine the Conditioner comes first? I want to Condition my New BlackSmith Hawthorne Muleskinner Boots and Protect them well, before I even put them on, These shoes are only sold in Europe and not in the States, So I would like to care for them as much as possible.
Thanks for your response and Videos.
Do you know when you guys will be getting in more of the Saphir MDO Super Invulner Waterproofing Spray?
Does the Saphir Super Invulner neutral waterproof spray change the shade of nubuck leather? There’s a pair of boots that I want that are matte black crazy horse leather that I want to waterproof while being able to retain the same matte color. I don’t want the shade of black to darken.
I've heard that brass brushes ruin suede and that new brush types have come out that aren't as harsh. Do you have any comment on this? Maybe non-professionals are misusing the brass brush, which is why I've heard people bash them?
Is true “ rough side out” treated same way? Thanks
All great information
Would you treat and care for Rough Out Leather the same way you would treat Suede Leather?
I also would like to know. I just recently purchased the distressed Ramblers by White's Boots and need to know the proper way to care for them before they get here.
@@-MichaelMunoz- I found something a while back on the Nicks Handmade Boots YT page. Plow through their content - I can't remember exactly which conditioning video that I saw it was on.
But now I oil (not paste) my roughouts with Obenauph oil - check an inconspicuous spot on the boot so it does not darken it too much.
Hope this helps.
How long would you say that water proof spray lasts with daily use but nothing hardcore just idk trip out in the rain to the offices
Hi i've candle stains on my blue suede shoes. Someone told me, that the parafine in candle couldn't be removed. The hard pieces are no problem but the deeper staines aren't removable. what are your thoughts about this.
Can it be used on suede jacket?
How would you take care of kudu leather?!
