How to help cracked vintage suede?
Hello All,
I have scoured the internet but I have not been able to encounter this exact problem anywhere... I recently got these shoes from my mum, who bought these a couple of decades ago in Italy. They are goregeous and I love them. One problem is that they have been sitting in garages for the recent decades, and now the suede, I believe, is dried out. It cracks and falls off, the insides turn into powder and stain my socks. I don't want to throw them away, so is there anything that can be done to save them? I tried applying some Dr. marten's miracle balm and leather conditioner to the inside, scared to touch the suede outside....
Thank you for your help!
Anne
