How to clean Ugg boots?

NeverEnoughTime · December 2010

I have a pair of Ugg boots. not the typical "classic" ones. Mine are a little smoother. I couldn't find the exact boot, but the material is like this:

I tried wiping them with water and it seemed like the colour was coming off on the cloth. It looks liek a drink dripped on them or something.

I was wondering if anyone knows how to clean them, outside of buying the official Ugg cleaner.

Thanks

Unfortunately, you may be doomed. Cleaning raw suede-type leather is very difficult if you have not scotch-guarded it. When the color is being removed, it is the dye is being released.

The official Ugg cleaner may be your best bet.

I am not sure about just a drink spilt, but I managed to drip hot grease on mine the other night, and put some corn meal on it to absorb the grease (we were looking for corn starch, but none to be found at the house). It worked. I can't see the spot anymore. Good Luck!
