Gently brush the suede with a dedicated suede brush. For stubborn marks, use a suede eraser.
Water spots on suede
Allow the shoe to air dry naturally away from heat. Once dry, try to brush out the mark with a suede brush. For persistent spots, consult a professional shoe cleaner specializing in suede.
