Cleaning mud from suede gloves

Icey77

My DH has a pair of suede gloves that got covered in mud when he had to pick up our daughter from a mud puddle in the woods (it was rather entertaining watching her fall in in the first place :rotfl:)

Does anyone have any ideas on how to clean them? The mud has now dried but is resisting being brushed off. I know they cant be washed but have no idea other than trying to brush them

Thanks x

Make sure they are dry. Then brush the dried mud off.

Oh yes, completely dry!
I will try some talc later, will raid DD bedroom

if the mud has caked on, then whack the gloves against a hard surface until it breaks down. (used to do this with OHs rugby kit), then you can brush it off with a very stiff brush such as a scrubbing or nail brush. then once most of the mud is off - a sprinkling of bicarb or talc brushed off with a wire sueade brush should bring them up nicely!

I was going to say bicarb too.
