Try with the suede shampoo/foam stuff. Many years ago I had a few suede shoes and had decent results from this, even revived a pair of tan desert boots after wearing them on the job as a barman.
I swore off suede for about twenty years but now im living in a somewhat drier climate I have a few pairs and try to protect them with scotchguard but this will make them a slightly darker shade.

I saw a video, I think posted here, a few months ago where a guy was washing suede shoes with running water and a suede brush. Scrubbed them under the water then put shoe trees in and let them dry, came out great. May be worth a try. I looked but couldn't find the video though.

Like most materials discussed here, suede is hardier stuff than it's made out to be.
