Hello. I have JC Sky in nude, but the thing is that patent leather became very dirty after only 2 weeks wearing and i have no idea how to clean it. I tried baby wet wipes, lemon juice, but it doesn't work :( Do somebody know how i could clean it?

Oh no! I have no answer for this one. I only have black patent for this reason, tho. We do have a thread that addresses care issues for your Choos, tho.

Goo gone wild, nail polish remover, magic eraser. That's what I did on a pair of shoes. However, if it's color transfer, nothing will help.

Jimmy Choo patent leather is a plastic coated leather. If the dirt is on the surface of the plastic and did not come off, then it may have soaked into the leather. Color transfer does this, and cannot be removed. Please attach and post some pics here - it will help us understand the situation clearly. Thank you.

Thank you very much ! Here it is

Have you tried a little of the Coach leather cleaner? I would spot test that. Don't want to give you any false hope, it looks like dye transfer from dark clothing or jeans. You could also consult lovinmybags.com

Thanks for advice. Actually it's just dust, nothing else :(

The patent leather is a plastic coating. Do not use any organic solvents like nail polish remover (acetone) If it is dust, then a damp cloth will remove it. What is all that dark discoloration and fluorescent pink spotting?
