How to clean UGG boots?
(@sineadbaldev)
As the weather gets colder, it's just the time to pull the old boots out of the closet.
Fans of UGG boots that are pleasant to the feet in general will be delighted at the thought of walking in them again outside the house.
The shoe brand launched in 1978 is still one of the most useful items among consumers in the winter season, when the boots are not only comfortable and warm but some also claim that they are chic in appearance.
Ironically, UGG boots are made of materials that stain quite easily in rainy weather conditions.
In other words, UGG boots require a lot of care and it is definitely not enough to wipe them down or wash them once a year.
TikTok user cupofjordy showed in a video how she cleans her dirty and stained UGG boots.
She presents the official UGG cleaning kit with a product designed to protect the shoes, a scented freshener and a cleaner + conditioner, along with a brush and a suede rub eraser.
In the first step, she uses a wet towel which she touches over the stained area of the shoe.
She then adds a little UGG Cleaner & Conditioner to the towel and gently rubs the stains.
After she's done going over the stained areas with the towel, she uses the scrub eraser to remove the remaining stubborn stains.
To finish, she uses the dry side of the towel to slightly moisten it and transfer it to the rest of the shoe, fills it with paper towels and lets it dry for a few hours away from the sun or heat.
This is how she does it:

UGG told Instyle: "We recommend wetting the surface of the boot with a clean, damp sponge and applying a small amount of UGG Cleaner & Conditioner to the sponge. To remove the stain, gently rub the sponge with the solution in a circular motion on the dirty areas. The damp shoe has Leave out of light/sun for 24 hours.

UGG also recommends using the UGG Protector Spray to protect the shoe: "Spray on each shoe until it is wet, not soaked, and let it dry naturally for 24 hours away from heat or sunlight."
After that, the suede brush, which is also included in the kit, helps to restore the original appearance of the leather."
The kit also includes a Shoe Renew purifier designed to keep the shoes smelling good and fresh.

But what will you do if you don't have the cleaning kit?
You can definitely save yourself some money with these tips:
The first thing to do is to use a suede brush to remove the dirt on the surface.
If you don't do this step first, you'll end up just pushing the dirt further into the fibers during cleaning.
After brushing the surface of the shoes, rub them with a damp cloth gently.
It is essential to use water sparingly, to avoid over-wetting the suede.
Using too much water when cleaning UGG boots can stretch them.
After you have finished cleaning the boots take some rags, socks or old newspapers and stuff them into the boots.
This will help prevent them from losing their shape as they dry.
Finally, place them in a cool, dry area and let them dry for at least 24 hours.
Avoid placing them in direct sunlight, as this can cause the suede to wrinkle and damage the shoes.
Grease stains and other greasy substances can be a challenge to remove.
If you notice a grease stain on suede or sheepskin shoes, you can use cornstarch or talcum powder to remove it.
Sprinkle the cornstarch or powder on the stain and allow it to sit for several hours to overnight.
The starch or talc should absorb the stain.
You may have to repeat this process several times until the stain is gone.
After you have successfully removed the stain, clean the boots to restore the color uniformity.
How to clean suede shoes with vinegar
@thespruceofficial Could your Ugg boots use a good cleaning?

While canvas shoes or sneakers can be washed, soaking suede boots in water can destroy the material, which means you should never put your UGG boots in the washing machine.
Instead, you can clean suede sneakers and other shoes with vinegar, and avoid damaging the material.
Start by removing the dirt from the shoes by brushing them with an old toothbrush or suede brush.
Next, pour one cup of white vinegar into a bowl.
Dip a clean sponge in vinegar and test its effect by rubbing an inconspicuous area of the boot to test the color fastness.
If color transfers to the sponge - do not use vinegar.
Instead, consult a professional leather cleaner.
If the color does not come off, rub the sponge with the white vinegar on the dirty areas of the shoe.
Allow the suede to dry thoroughly, then use the suede brush to restore it to its original glory.
The vinegar will leave an odor behind for a while, but don't worry - it will eventually dissipate.
How to renew the color of UGG boots?
If your UGG boots have started to fade due to time or over-cleaning, they can be re-colored with a suede dye.
You can buy suede paint at most shoe stores, and it comes in a variety of colors and shades to match your boots perfectly.
Sheepskin can be safely dyed using suede paint as it does not damage the integrity of the boot.
Just don't forget to stuff the boots with something to help them keep their shape before you start painting them.
Follow the instructions on the product and allow them to dry completely before removing the filler.
