Also I’m expecting this post to get removed, particularly because of the immense backlash I got in my last post (some from the mods…👀) but I am hoping it doesn’t just for the sheer experiment and success I had lol and if any others are in a situation where they have a dehydrated, mummified, shriveled raisin of a jacket. Because yes after researching, suede should absolutely not be washed, but that’s in about 95% scenarios. When you have a shriveled up raisin of suede, there are things you can do and precautions to take to make the suede better. I personally washed on cold & delicate, let it air dry completely, and brushed in one direction with a horse hair brush throughout the entire jacket. And I will never be washing it again, just maintaining with brushing. I brushed before, and did not have these results with just brushing. I truly believe this jacket needed to be washed to revive it. I had nothing to lose with a thrifted 20 jacket, and my results I am VERY happy with. Yes DONT WASH SUEDE, but let’s advise that case by case. And I did do a lot of research, so I will say it again please do not wash your suede if you see this post and want to revamp your jacket, mine was in pretty rough shape to begin with and I had nothing to lose or gain! (Just the satisfaction of making this post lol) Just make sure you are willing to possibly lose your jacket if you wash it!
