Nubuck, Suede & Aniline Cleanse (No.10): gently removes damaging and unhygienic dirt, grime, body oil and perspiration from the surface. The perfect cleaner to have on hand when spills happen.
Nubuck, Suede & Aniline Nourish (No.11): a conditioning lotion that penetrates to help prevent drying, cracking, and help maintain suppleness. Formulated to minimise extra shine and avoid darkening.
Anti-bacterial

- Escherichia coli (E coli)
- Proteus vulgaris

Light and regular care is best
Apply by spray or pour onto a just damp white microfibre cloth then wipe over the surface. A soft bristle may help to agitate dirt from the grain when cleaning and lift the nap after nourishing. With regular use, this dynamic duo can help your leather age gracefully.
Aniline leathers and stains
Aniline leathers are widely considered the most beautiful. At the same time, they are inherently vulnerable to permanent marks and stains Over time, these marks can form a patina. With regular care your leather builds light stain resistance and existing marks can appear more subtle.
Brush to lift the nap
Nubucks and suedes can be brushed to refresh and lift the nap after treatment.
Consider adding Protect (No.3) to your care regime
Also check out Protect (No.3) (optional add-on). It is an anti-soiling UV barrier that can be compatible with nubuck, suede and aniline leathers. It must be tested in an inconspicuous place before use to ensure compatibility with your unique leather.
Suitable for use on nubuck, suede and aniline leathers.

Coverage estimates are broad as individual users have leather
that is in different condition and use products on different care schedules. The newer the leather and the more frequently it is serviced, the less product required per service. The older the leather, the less frequently it has been
treated in the past and with an infrequent care schedule going forward, the amount of product needed for each service will be greater. We recommend light and regular care. For some users this will be once every week or two. For others, it will be once every 3 months. In most cases, leather care that is
stretched beyond a 3 monthly schedule requires more effort and can consume more product. Another factor is usage. Some users choose to apply more product per service than others.

I wanted to let you know your Suede, Nubuck Conditioner softened and raised the nap on my 60yr old suede jacket - a very pleasing result. Unfortunately the jacket was put through the washing machine🙁 by a well meaning grandmother 50yrs ago, so it's still very stiff, but the surface looks terrific now. A magic result, so many thanks to you! Great to receive your email and advice Leanne. I'll follow those instructions. Your shop and guidance are so valuable as there's very little leather knowledge out there - thank you!!
My husband spilt sambuca on his Blundstones and I was convinced it wouldn’t come out. I bought this cleaner with the hopes that maybe I could lighten the stain a little. To my surprise the stain is completely GONE! I was shocked, I wish I had taken before and after photos! Very impressive and I am recommending the product to everyone!
I restored a faded stained Timothy Oulton Shabby lounge, it’s spent 7 years in a high traffic house with lots of sunlight. It’s came out looking like new and it was easy to do.
I was very worried about cleaning our Nubuck leather couch, it just looks like such an incredibly delicate and absorbent surface, and for this reason it needed cleaning and protecting and nourishing. My couch is looking hydrated again and the colour is better again, there was even an improvement in the damaged section.I've now used all 3 of Leather Hero's products, and can confidently say that they compare very favourably with the expensive US imports I've bought previously, and are an Australian supplier, so that is better for both the planet and my wallet!
I have a BMW leather jacket and pants.. Unusually they're a nubuck leather. The leather hero cleaner and conditioner is perfect. Leaves the suit feeling clean and soft. Highly, highly recommended.
I bought this for s pair of old Liberty Black boots that I got secondhand. I cleaned them, let them dry then used the nourish and let that dry then lightly buffed them over. They look like new. I would highly recommend this product.
I used this product on a badly stained handbag as a last resort before it was going to be thrown out. It worked and my bag is back in use. Very happy!
I brought this product for a single application. My 35+ year old nubuck jacket, that was in need of some love. Results: all the softness and pliability of the fabric returned. Great result. Many Thanks
I love this conditioner for my open pore leather saddles, heavier conditionrs damage the leather but this is wonderful. keeps my saddle grippy as well
Products very good thank you as I'm not familiar with cleaning my suede boots but this products made it seem easy but I may have ruined one of my suede pair of boots with the conditioner when it dried lol. But I'll definitely order from leather hero again
This product has given my Timberland Boots a much needed revitalise. I got a 125ml bottle and I've used the whole lot on my 6 pairs of nubuck boots. They've never looked better. Thankyou.
The conditioner works well and improved the appearance of my suede shoes.
This is a really good product and works well!
