              Have you tried a really large suede gum eraser? 😉

              Seriously though, got a picture of what you're dealing with?

                While we're at it: Is it possible to remove indigo stains from suede/rough out?

                  You can use a mild soap and nylon bristle brush to scrub suede/roughout leather. It can take it. Afterwards, let them air dry thoroughly (no heat). You can try an eraser or more scrubbing on any stubborn spots. Once they are as clean as you can get/would like, consider a spray like Terrago Nano Spray to help keep them cleaner for longer. I've not had great luck completely removing indigo transfer, but this process will usually help somewhat.

                  Looks like denim truly is the fabric of our salvation.

                    thanks @pechelman and @krebsy will try mild/soap with nylon brush, then after dried the gum eraser and brush again - and nothing special @Matt it's just that I like to wear them at work, and it may not be too trustworthy if the doc looks like he's walked through cow shit recently

                      I'd doubly trust a doc that looked like he'd walked through cow shit.....
