The best way to restore suede leather in 2024 👜🧼

I recently picked up this vintage GUCCI purse. It was in pretty bad shape, but some elbow grease got it shining again!

Step By Step:
1) Brush the heck out of every inch of suede
2) Use the eraser on every inch of suede
3) Brush the eraser bits out
4) Shampoo! I used 2 tbsp of shampoo + 1/4 cup of distilled water
5) Rinse the shampoo
6) Let dry for 24+ hours
7) Brush every inch of suede again
8) Conditioner! Go outside, wear a mask, and spray
9) Let settle for 10 minutes
10) Brush every inch of suede with a horsehair brush
11) *Optional* Waterproof the suede. Again, go outside, wear a mask, and spray
12) Brush the suede again. It's a LOT of brushing!
13) Not filmed - I used the leather cream below on the handle straps

My favorite restoration so far has been a FOSSIL bag!
