new jeans + wet weather = stained boots :(

I was sooooooooooooo pleased with my new navy jeans.

Got caught in the rain and now my brown leather boots have navy jean juice all over them :rolleyes:

The boots weren't cheap, and they aren't available anymore. Anyone got any ideas how to restore my lovely boots?

Try some leather cleaning wipes. If the cleaning wipes don't work you could try saturating a white sock in cheap vodka (such a waste though!) & gently patting (not rubbing) at the stain. This worked when I got biro on a cream leather sofa - so hopefully will work for you.

Don't use any household cleaning products as this will almost certainly damage the leather & don't use anything abrasive as this will damage the grain.

I hate to say it, but if princess leah's idea doesn't work, you may have to dye them.

I had a similar thing happen to my cream suede shoes. I dyed them black. You can buy the kits quite easily in Boyes up here, and I imagine on the internet everywhere?

Just as a last resort, its worth knowing you can possibly save them in some form
