Bullfeet was born with the aim of proving that fashion and sustainability can go hand in hand. Giving a second life to different materials which are destined to end up in trash, and recycle them, is something that has always appealed to us, which is why we decided to initiate this project.

Suede sneakers are a stylish and popular choice of footwear, but they require special care and attention when it comes to cleaning. If you own a pair of suede sneakers and want to keep them looking fresh and clean, this blog post will guide you through the process of cleaning suede sneakers effectively. By following these steps, you can maintain the pristine appearance of your suede sneakers and prolong their lifespan.
Step 1: Gather the necessary materials
Before you begin the cleaning process, gather the following materials:
- Soft-bristled brush
- Suede eraser
- Clean, dry cloth
- White vinegar
- Water
- Suede protector spray (optional)
Step 2: Remove dirt and stains
Use a soft-bristled brush to gently brush off any loose dirt or dust from the suede surface. Be sure to brush in one direction to avoid damaging the delicate suede fibers. For stubborn stains, lightly rub a suede eraser over the affected area. The eraser will help lift the stain without damaging the suede.
Step 3: Treat liquid stains
In case of liquid spills, act quickly. Use a clean, dry cloth to blot the excess liquid gently. Avoid rubbing, as it can spread the stain further into the suede. If the stain persists, mix equal parts of white vinegar and water, and dab the solution onto the stain using a cloth. Blot the area with a clean, dry cloth afterward.

Step 4: Remove scuff marks
To remove scuff marks, gently rub the affected area with a suede brush or a clean, dry toothbrush. Use small, circular motions and apply light pressure. The brush will help restore the suede's nap and diminish the appearance of scuffs.
Step 5: Restore texture and appearance
After cleaning, restore the texture and appearance of your suede sneakers by brushing the entire surface with a soft-bristled brush. Brushing in one direction will raise the nap and give your sneakers a fresh look. Repeat this step as needed until you achieve the desired appearance.
Step 6: Apply a suede protector spray
Consider using a suede protector spray to add an extra layer of protection to your sneakers. Spray the product evenly over the entire surface of the suede, holding the can about six inches away. Allow the sneakers to dry thoroughly before wearing them.
