If the bag has only surface dirt and no grease you may want to try a few things yourself. Always test an inconspicuous area of the bag before working on a visible surface. Try a suede brush. The brushes with both nylon and brass bristles work well. Do not over brush because you can thin the suede. If that doesn’t work try a suede eraser. Again don’t over do it.

If there is grease associated with the stain don’t work on it at all. Your efforts will rub the grease in and make cleaning a more difficult challenge. If the described efforts above are unsuccessful I would ship the bag to Margaret’s utilizing our CleanByMail facility. We have had very successful experience in cleaning purses and handbags including the suede bags.
