My wee one has got splashes of dirt from the horrible slush that's out there now. Does anyone know how I should be cleaning them.....i've tried letting it dry in and brushing it off...but it leaves a mark :-(

I was going to try that but thought it might waste them.0

I'd say spot treat them with a specialised oil removing treatment. The slush you talk about is a mixture of oil and mud and scum. It wont come off easy, I don't want to sound horrible here so pls don't get the wrong end of the stick but white, pale or cream cardys? they aren't really going to stay white and any stains probably wont ever totally go away, the best advice would be to not wear them anywhere wet, damp or with lose dirt. Save for inside if you want to keep them looking cream.
You could try your local dry cleaners but they may not take them in. They should be fine on a cool wash in the machine but spot treat them first, make sure all lose debris have been taken off the sole (stones, excess dirt etc) and wash on a cool cycle. My black suede tall pair have been fine like this, however I doubt it would remove all stains as its a cool cycle.0 -

Thanks for the advice :-) Thinking that cream might not have been the best choice for a pre-teen heeheee0 -

Lol- prob not!
Have you tried John Lewis for Dylon spot cleaners? otherwise stuff called glow-white or something like that works quite well. I think you can also get stuff from dry cleaners for spot cleaner but as I say, it may not all come off.0
