In order to remove those stains you’ll need to treat both boots with saddle soap or a product like saphir omninettoyant cleaner. Perhaps even several times. It’s the only way to ensure total removal of the stain plus consistent coloring all over. Bummer. Good luck.Help!! I got a baby lotion stain on my suede RM Williams ?.
any idea how can I remove it without ruining the boots??

You could use a product like Saphir renovateur suede nubuck spray to restore coloring once the stain has been removed.thanks for the reply.
what should I use for the coloring?
Has anyone tried the RM Williams suede cleaner?? Should it do the work?

Wait before soaping the whole thing!!! There's a high chance you'll wreck the suede to an unrecoverable degree.
Try the following things first:
- take them off, put in shoe trees, sprinkle talc or baking soda/powder on the oil stain liberally (do not rub in), let sit for 48hours, blow/brush powder off
- if that doesn't work, use a light suede cleaner and a brush to raise the nep and clean the area
*the stain should be a lot lighter now*
If you're unsatisfied and want to pursue further action, you can clean both shoes fully with saddle soap
*if you're still unhappy and want to refinish, I would recommend either:*
- waxing or oiling the shoes to get an oiled suede look (this will darken the suede but is a super cool look anyway)
- dyeing the shoes a darker color (this may not cover up the oil spot completely either)

I just received my Comfort Craftsman’s in black. I needed a good boot for upstate New York’s winters. I ordered over the phone from Clay at the NYC store. Clay was amazing and answered all my questions. Awesome customer service.
I did extensive research on several brand’s prior to my purchase and read most of the posts on this thread. I wear an 8 1/2 D in most AE shoes and got the 7 1/2 GCF 9/19. Assume that means they were made in Sept ‘19. Put them on and were immediately in love with the way they feel. The hype is well founded. I am blown away by the craftsmanship. These may be the most comfortable piece of footwear I have ever owned. I will be ordering another pair in the near future.
Hi, what's the actual width difference between the F & G. Is it all the way slimmer from heel cup to toe box? About 1mm or 2..3..? mms narrower you figure?Sizing .although the 7 1/2 G fit fine, I felt it was a tad bit loose...

Do you feel the F at all shorter?
Would you think of ever trying E?
