0:22 "you really can't damage suede" 2:48 "you don't want to use too much pressure, because you can actually damage the suede"
lullemans72 It's really difficult to damage Suede during wear. It's a durable material. Almost impossible to damage in a way that cannot be fixed while you are wearing it.
That said, you can damage Suede if you take a stiff-bristled brush to it like a madman. It still requires care during brushing.
Hope this helps reconcile those two comments.
whoa, i wasn't expecting you to reply, but thanks for the useful tips.

😂🤣
i was about to comment this shit as soon as i heard it lmfao. contradiction if ive ever heard one
If you spray a waterproof sealant over the suede, will you brush the sealer off when you clean it with a brush?
Shine on Kirby!
If one brushes suede after every wear (or fairly frequently), wouldn't that undo the waterproofing? Does it follow then, that one has to re apply the waterproofing spray every time one brushes the shoe?
Dip the entire shoe in tyre shine.
Job done 👏
That Goyard trunk/ case is crazy 🔥🔥
Thank you 🙏for this awesome video I fell good because now I know how to care for my suede boots 💪
YO ANYBODY A PART OF REMFAM?
Hi I have a pair of Jordan 14s with a ton of suede on the shoes. My question is: how can I keep them fresh after use? (As I use them a lot and just beat them up.) Thanks for the video, it was insightful in some many ways ✌️✌️✌️🙏😎
Great video. I always use Saphir for my shoes. It is an outstanding brand.
THAT GOYARD PIECE IN THE BACKGROUND IS TO DIE FOR
Hello ,,
How can I remove the extra hair form Suede shoes caused by cleaning it by brass brush ?
Great video! A few questions:
- Can I clean the actual brush?
- Can I use the same brush for different colour suede shoes? I have a blue and black pair. Hence the first question as I don't want blue fabric/colour on my black ones.
Thanks,
It's probably safer to go with separate brushes
Kirby, how about roughout leather maintenance? Can I just use these products or no? Is there any particular product for roughout?
Yes but what if I step on my blue suede shoes? What happens then?
Can i use it in nubuck shoes?
Can I just use a toothbrush?
Please help how do i get hair condioner out of suede shoes
Whatever anyone says: using a brass brush on silky soft suede just seems counterintuitive...Going to buy the crepe brush. No way that I'm using metal bristles on my suede shoes...
brass brush is to restore the nap , you dont brush it too hard , just enough to fluff the suede back up
Can you clean them with soft brush? And is this possible to make suede shoes shine? I have timberland for the first time, and I prefer shining leather shoes... I wonder is is possible to make suede shine
I'm considering a pair of John Lobb Milton's, which are a waxed suede. Do you have any suggestions on caring for waxed suede? I was not able to find any video on it. Thanks.
Not sure they maybe nubuck leather x
I watch this video with friends. Every time we hear 'suede cleaning brush', we take a drink. We are wasted.
What is the correct way of brushing suede? Back and forth like you do? Or in one direction and which one? To dig the hair or to comb it down? Some say to brush in one direction, others say or show back and forth or in a circular motion. Does it really matter actually?
You want to brush into the nap without brushing too hard. I brush back and forth, but you always want to end by brushing up against the nap.
Thanks a lot, l'll stick to your way. Now, l like your natural suede brush but l see you don't ship internationally. ln Europe l can mostly find a suede brush combined with brass bristles. How about treating nubuck with it? l use a crepe brush for nubuck and it does the job. However, l think I'd prefer a brush with bristles to brush the dirt off and also it flows more smoothly in the hand than crepe brush.
We have a co.uk site and should begin shipping internationally. Just email customer service and I'll see if we can take care of you.
The bristled suede brushes are too rough for nubuck. I would really only use crepe. You could also try just using a clean horsehair shoe shine brush on nubuck. The bristles are softer and shouldn't damage it.
Thanks, Kirby, appreciate the tips. l'll check the site!
Kirby Allison what's a nap
I’m really scared to use horse bristles on my suede, they are firm af
Can I use Saphir Renovateur on Suede boots?
Hi Kirby..I am very much a novice when it comes to professional shoe care, cleaning, shining, etc...but as I have watched a number of different videos {and I greatly enjoy the ASMR aspects}, it seems to me that the brand Saphir, may be the Cadillac of the trade...as a general statement is this true, or are there a number of other brands, that have their own adherents/aficiandos as being superior...thanks...
daniel lack Hi Daniel, Saphir Medaille d'Or is unquestionably the gold standard when it comes to important shoes. There is Lincoln in the United States, which makes a good wax but in only a very limited range of colors. And there really isn't any other cream polish I'd even consider.
Can you make a video about how to use the crepe brush with suede?
Armando, just made one! Click here to watch: ua-cam.com/video/cbUSug15yFs/v-deo.html
The Hanger Project Thanks!
Great video. I am in the process of cleaning 3 pair of suede shoes using the Saphir Omni'nettoyant that I purchased from you.
Louis DiCerbo Great! Let us know if you have any questions!
Those loafers are to die for...... so much want...
Did you find out where he got them?
Mr Downtown.
I accidentally got Saphir renovateur spray with pigment on my white soles, any idea how it can be cleaned off?
A light touch of Reno’Mat should work
Thanks for the tip!
I JUST GOT SOME SUEDE DESERT BOOTS IT RAINED TODAY AS I DOES ALOT HERE IN THE UK.. HOW CAN I RID THE RAIN SPOTS ON MY BOOTS.. WOULD THEY DISAPPEAR WITH A SUEDE BRUSH.
No. You would use either Saphir Omni'Nettoyant leather shampoo all over the shoes, or you would use Saphir Gommadin (suede eraser) on the spots along with a bristle brush. To prevent more rain spots, you'll want to use Saphir Invulner (waterproofing spray) to make sure that water doesn't get in and damage the suede.
Can you use Saphir Hiver/winter salt remover on suede?
Yes, you sure can! www.hangerproject.com/saphir-hiver-winter-salt-snow-stain-remover.html
How do you disinfect suede or nubuck against the Covid virus?
🤣
Kirby, I have bought some 1950s suede French army boots. They are in very good condition, but have been sat in a box for about 60 years. How would you treat them please?
Presuming they are not suede (you're posting this question on a suede care video), I would use the Saphir Dubbin. It is a very rich condition and is probably what would have been originally used on a boot like this. It will also help waterproof.
The Hanger Project Thank you for your prompt advice!
If they are suede, Saphir has a spray-on suede conditioner. Use that, then a suede eraser to get any spots off. Brush it well and then use a waterproofing spray (Saphir has one).
Which make are those shoes please
These were Alfred Sargent shoes
Hi Kirby,
I've been interested in getting some shoe care products from the Hanger Project. Yet the shipping cost for shipping to Australia is very dear. Will THP have free (or more reasonable) international shipping promotions or options?
Alea Han Man, I wish we could figure out a cheaper way to ship to Australia! We use usps right now, which is the most reasonable, and we still actually lose money on many orders because the website just can't predict international shipping very accurately. Reach out to customer service and see if they can help. They can always confirm if the shipping price you're being quoted is accurate/reasonable.
We will be adding international shipping to our .co.uk website. Shipping from the U.K. might be less expensive than the United States. Hoping to do this by the end of April.
The Hanger Project Sounds like a great idea. The website quoted me a $89+(already the cheapest one) shipping cost but it could also be that I added a shoe shine kit to the order. Let's hope the UK site ships international for lower soon! Thanks.
Alea Han Best thing to do is reach out directly to Customer Service. That sounds about right, though. The cedar box is large.
What season are suede shoes good for? Fall or summer?
Winter
I "shampoo" my suede shoes once or twice a year (using Saphir Omninettoyant Cleaner), could this hurt the shoes in the long run? Also, the toes on one of my pair of suede shoes are starting to get lighter in color, is there a good way to recolor them (I think they might be damaged by salt)?
Regular shampooing of your suede will only extend the life by keeping the suede clean and looking good. I would only suggest also conditioning it with the Saphir Suede & Nubuck Sprays (www.hangerproject.com/saphir-suede-spray.html). These contain almond oils and will help condition the suede, thereby renewing it's patina.
They also come with some colored pigments, which will help restore the evenness of the finish and correct what you are seeing on the toe of your shoes.
Thank you!
When do you use the Renovateur spray? I presume it's not necessary for new shoes.
Certainly wouldn't hurt! The Renovating Spray would help condition the suede and enhance the shine.
Will it still impregnate the suede after some months when I've used Invulner? And how frequent do you apply Renovateur?
What is nice about the Super Invulner is that it naturally wears off - this is actually good. The Tarrago Nano Protector is impossible to remove - almost permanent. I would recommend shampooing suede shoes first to remove any residual Saphir Super Invulner before applying the Renovating Spray to ensure the suede is clean and can, therefore, absorb the almond oils.
Do you recommend a specific product for shampooing suede shoes? Baby shampoo ;-) perhaps?

Where can I get that natural bristle brush for suede? Can you give me a link to your site where I can get that brush?
Lino, here it is: www.hangerproject.com/hanger-project-suede-cleaning-brush.html
The Hanger Project it seems the link doesn't exist. It takes me to the page with all your product categories. Is it available in your UK site?
Sorry, for some reason it doesn't work on my tablet, but in my laptop is ok. Thanks.
The bristles are from what animal? is it available in your UK site?
These should be available in the UK. I believe the suede brush is boar bristle. It is quite stiff.
Hey I have a question. So there is 2 different saphir renos online. They have different logos are they the same product or same?
Josue, here is a link to the Saphir Reno Mat: www.hangerproject.com/saphir-reno-mat-cleaner.html
Hope that helps!
This is TERRIBLE guide
Why
@@WiredY06 When brushing suede shoes, it is generally recommended to brush them in one direction rather than going back and forth. The reason for this in my option, is to avoid damaging the delicate suede fibers and to maintain a sort of “uniform appearance”.
By Brushing suede shoes in one direction helps to restore the nap, which is the soft, fuzzy texture of the suede. you can I guess effectively remove dirt, dust, and whatever debris from the surface of the shoe while also keeping the nap sort of aligned.
If you brush suede shoes back and forth, the bristles of the brush may catch on the suede fibers and cause them to become matted or flattened. Plus result in an uneven appearance and a def a loss of the suede's natural texture.
Firm pressure isn’t necessary either. I don’t know if “terrible” is the right word. But it’s not great. I go in one direction back of the shoe to the front. Directly up at the heel. If you’re you can figure out the natural grain of the suede. out the best direction to brush in One Direction. That’s a little more difficult but then again, this is just my opinion.
@@SneakCleaners519 ok thanks. I got Jordan’s with a little bit of suede and I wanna keep them good quality.
Where did you get your shoes?
