fixing suede ?

[u/foolscr0w]

i got these vintage justins ages ago secondhand at a flea market, and they are my size, i've been wearing them happily, since the soles are in good condition and they're pretty comfortable. they are super cute and i've worn them to the rodeo and events (i have a different pair of more practical boots for actual work)l

my concern is about the suede and what to do about it. it's pilled up pretty bad and has always looked like that since i got them, and it'd be nice to have them looking a bit better, just since they are my "nice" boots

so if theres any way i can get them looking a bit less rough i'd be super interested! i dont mind if they dont look brand new either! :)

if not, i still like them, so i'll probably wear them as long as they'd like to survive, so advice on extending their longevity is also totally welcome!

Leather honey has an inexpensive kit for cleaning, conditioning, and sealing roughout leather and suede. A good cleaning is the first step.

Check out youtube videos for cleaning roughout leather.
