How to clean this?

[Grkgrl19]

Hello all,
I have a suede chevron shopping tote that could use some TLC. I’m attaching pictures. Should I just use the cloth it came with to clean it? Is there a suede cleaner you recommend for the large spot on the back of the bag? Thank you!

Saphir makes one that is very well reviewed.

However from your pictures, I think your bag is actually nubuck not suede.

It’s possible! I’m not an expert at all, maybe I’ll just stop by a store and ask before i try to clean it.

If you google suede, it’s a leather that has a “nap” which look like short hairs. Nubuck is a top grain leather which has been sanded down to a velvety finish.

Both leathers have similar characteristics (susceptible to stains/water)

Looks like nubuck: You need an eraser and a brush for that.
