For optimal results, use a specialized UGG care kit or a suede cleaning kit. Gently brush off any loose dirt with a suede brush. For stains, apply a small amount of suede cleaner to a clean sponge or cloth and dab the affected area. Allow to air dry completely, then re-brush the suede to restore its texture.
