    Question cleaning a soft leather purse

    My daughter just slipped sweet tea, so sugar and water are involved, on my purse. The purse itself is red, kind of like suede but not quite that soft, and already has something like water spots on it. If it were regular leather I'd just wipe it off with a wet cloth but I'm afraid doing that will do more damage. Help me if you can. I just bought this purse a couple of weeks ago and I love it!

    Take it to a shoe and luggage repair shop?

    maybe try saddle soap in a small area to test for safe use.

    I would suggest a drycleaner that does leather coats and such.

    What ever you do don't get soft leather wet. I wrecked a stone mountain soft leather purse by trying to clean in with water. Go to or call the leather shop.
