CLEANING SUEDE WITH JASON MARKK

Cleaning suede is a fear of many. But with Jason Markk Premium Shoe Cleaner and the proper techniques, you’ll soon be cleaning suede like a pro!
Ready? Let’s get started!
When attempting to clean dyed suede, proceed with extreme caution. Dyed suede is likely to bleed with ANY contact with water.
An easy way to test for bleeding is to take a light-colored towel and lightly brush the suede to check for any color transfer.
When cleaning suede or any other delicate materials, be sure to use our Premium Brush which has softer hog bristles.
The very first step is to take a dry premium brush and lightly brush the entire area of the shoe. This willremove any loose top layer dirt that may be sitting on the suede.
To start, follow steps 1-3 listed on the back of the bottle.
Now before scrubbing be sure to shake off as muchexcess water as possible. You can even take the brush and dab it onto a towel to remove even more water.
Next you can start scrubbing, it’s best to give the entire area of suede an even go. This helps to promote even drying and prevents any water spots.Repeat as necessary.
Now that you’ve cleaned the suede, the next and most critical step is the drying and revival process.
After scrubbing, it’s important to move very fast -right into the drying process with a clean, drymicrofiber towel.
Take the towel and begin to dab and twist. The key is to MOVE FAST.
The dab and twist method not only absorbs water from the suede, but helps to slowly bring the nap back.
Repeat this several times. Then allow to dry naturally.
In an hour or two, revisit the suede with a dry premium brush and begin to work the nap back and forth.
Continue this motion for an extended period of time. Then set the shoes aside and allow them to continue to dry naturally.
After allowing the shoes to dry for several more hours, revisit the suede and repeat working the napback and forth with a dry premium brush.
Repeating these steps several times throughout the drying period until the shoes have completely dried is critical.

Awesome review, it sure made me want to want to go order the kit now. Thanks!

[@fareezaljaffar4350]

Hi JM,at the earlier process,you mentioned to use light towel in order to check color transfer right,what if the shoe have those issue?..I'm facing that problem whereby if i nap the shoe using towel,i will see the color of the shoe on it..please advise..thank you

[@alfredgomes4280]

I got bleed stains from water on these lebron soldier 10 white and I help on cleaning the stains any solutions

[@fernsehnostalgie]

I used the Premium Cleaner a few times pure with a towel on a near clean shoe made from leather, is that a problem? I didn´t use the brush or water. The towel was a bit red from the leather, it bleeded a bit out? Is that normal?

[@eddiea5393]

Do we clean the shoe or we dont clean the shoe when the color if the Diy suede gets on the towel?

[@ricardobatenburg6169]

Do have a new instruction vid of the suede cleaning product?

[@biggreg7870]

I accidentaly spilled some water on my Jordan 5s which had suede so this video really helped.

[@johnmace7110]

Anyone having issues with this process, I recommend using far less water than even seen here, I found that the amount you see here to create THAT much bubbles if far past the amount of water you want. For those who feel that it still ruined their suede even after using the absolute minimum water, be patient. I just cleaned one shoe of my SoleBox UBs and was terrified shortly after when seeing the suede compared to the untouched one. CLEANED SUEDE WILL NEVER MAINTAIN THE "LIKE NEW" TEXTURE 100%. But fear not, even when it feels dry to the touch, suede still has more to dry. Even so I felt that the cleaned suede was much darker. To fix this I happened to have a Angelus Suede eraser and supplied brush (only used it because my premium JM brush was damp still) which once the suede "felt" dry I would go over all the "cleaned" suede with the eraser then brush off the eraser shavings with the COMPLETELY DRY brush, I would wait a few more minutes (to let it continue drying?) and then rinse and repeat with the suede eraser. After a few times of doing this I can honestly say the suede has restored completely to its untouched color (I kept the other shoe untouched to compare). This said, while the color is now restored, the cut is visibly shorter on the cleaned suede under closer inspection. So not a perfect system BUT you can clean suede and maintain the color! Hope this helps people as I havent seen any videos of people incorporating both the cleaner and eraser and it worked great for me!

[@jki808]

John Mace These were the grey and white pairs right? The ones with the red outsoles?

[@rcole6679]

I think your advice is great! Too much water and... ruined shoes! I remember taking some suede saddle shoes to a shoe repair shop before and it was the brush which did the trick. He put them under a “grinder” type wheel, which I’m sure had bristles, which were perfectly designed for brushing off the matted/soiled suede and kicked up the suede nap below. They looked brand new! These miracle liquid cleaners are questionable at best. I bet a light dusting of baking soda, to absorb dirt and a good brush would do the trick too.

[@Bl1tzs]

Can you do a video on how to clean flywire type of shoes? For example white hyperdunks 2017, adidas primeknit, and kd9.. They all are white and seem to have the same material... And another question how to prevent yellowing?

[@saralilafraiche]

I followed this video and used the same products, and the suede portions of my vans did not turn out the same- not the same texture and color. Any tips?

[@angelperalta7444]

So used them on my new balances and it changed the color lol it went from light Maroon to dark maroon ... I trusted you ....

[@threalmachinsky]

Got a small scuff mark on the left toe of my light gray New Balance 990s that I had just bought for ~$300 (by far the most expensive pair of sneakers I’ve ever owned) and after following these steps with Jason Markk products to spot clean the toe mark, I’ve had massive color bleeding and there’s now a large dark blue smudge on the toe, which is far more noticeable than the original scuff - very pissed off, be VERY careful

[@kvocalist]

Be very careful, it ruins suede depending on what type! I had 1 lil mark on a pair of my black suede Jordans, used his on the go cleaning solution with the lil toothbrush provided, and the suede is now dark and shiny, it does not resemble that nubuck suede like the rest of the shoe. I will NOT use Jason Mark again!

Would the procedure differ if the suede had a colored surface that would bleed?

[@christianspringa6394]

You should clean the suede one color at a time.

[@5t3fanMitF]

How come the shoelaces are so perfectly clean before he starts cleaning! 🤔

[@lauratubah6805]

would this work on old stains and oily stains?

[@rcole6679]

I’d take your old stained oily suede shoes to a repair shop and ask them to brush up the nap. I did that once and they used an electric grinding type wheel, which must’ve had bristles, designed for suede shoes...not to soft...not to abrasive. The oily dirt disappeared and the under suede nap was brushed up and they looked like new! I’ve found a really good pair of shoes are worth resoling and taking to a pro. Most shops aren’t too expensive, just be sure they’re experienced.

[@MikosDaGawd]

thank you so much. personally, would like to hear more inviting music in these videos. let me know if i can help!

[@atreyuwings]

Almost helpful. Just need a video like this but one that isn’t trying to sell a cleaning kit. What can I do at home with bronners and an old tooth brush?

[@kvocalist]

So the toothbrush provided with your on the go cleaning kit ruined my suede sneakers. It has not only changed colour, its changed the nubuck material and now it looks shiny! I am guessing the toothbrush is far to harsh for suede.

[@dadaUnts]

Also, before starting the whole process, taking off the laces is a must, so the color of the suede does not transfer to the laces...

[@aurarift8923]

Taping down things that are not the same color and doing each part one by one also helps

[@detolerandisstultorum]

I used to clean them directly into the washing mashine. It works with premium quality shoes, liquid detergent and a short washing program. If you have poor quality suede shoes they will surely loose color, as it happened to me once. I was washing them in the machine for years because no other method cleans better a shoe. Except for leather ones, that cannot be cleaned with water. I would recommend to buy shoes that have very small amounts of suede incorporated, it is safer. Cleaning like in the video is just for the outside and very time/energy consuming. What about the inside and the odors that accumulate there??

[@AwakeinAlbany1]

It might be a good idea to write the "remove excess water" part on the actual bottle where the instructions are as opposed to a KZbin video. This cleaning process made my shoes look worse. Completely unimpressed by the Jason Markk shoe cleaner.

[@qdavisbeats8405]

Wehavetocreate dude same thing happened to me! It was a small dark scuff on the back of my new balance 990s, and I used this exact same cleanser with the instructions, and it looks worst and idk how to fix it.. really pissed off about it

[@mikerusso5481]

You ain't supposed to use this shit on suede guys. End of story. You ain't supposed to use 💧 on suede. ..that's why Jason Markk has a suede kit that DOES include water in the process. Just a horse hair brush and some orange eraser. Guess it works pretty good if you follow complete directions which lots don't then blame the product later 😂

Don’t think so! The closeup wasn’t good enough, but they did look like cloth. Got vans? Unlace them and toss laces and shoes into the wash. I would not use hot water either, but instead start with cold, then maybe warm, if the cold didn’t work so well or another round with cold water as a follow up. Dry on low, to avoid set in stains or melted rubber or even shrinkage.
