I got my new dressage saddle on friday, lovely Albion legend, but the suede seat and knee rolls were dirty. Quite how dirty I didnt realise till I started cleaning it up, it was disgusting. I thought the suede was supposed to be dark brown but in fact is a lovely light brown. Heres my problem, after spening 4 hours and a lot of elbow grease cleaining it yesterday there is still a couple of stubborn little marks that are ruining the appearance of what now looks like a (almost) brand new saddle, sorry feeling really smug that I've managed to get it spanking clean clean :o, and I'm now desperate to finish it. So what can you recommend on the damn little buggers that wont come out. I must say they are a lot better than they were but I just cant finish them off :mad: So far I have gone through a can of suede cleaner :eek: and used the attachment on the lid to fluff it all back up again...
 
Not sure tbh, suede is a bugger to clean! Maybe try calling albion, they should be able to give you good care advice that will keep it nice and supple too.
