Dropped oily food on brand new Ugg boot

[uggggh]

What can I do ? I never owned proper uggs when they were trendy many years ago because I could never afford them. I just got my first ever pair and they're so comfy.

I immediately sprayed them with suede protector spray.. later on I was cooking and loving life in my comfy new uggs, when I dropped an oily tomato on them.

Two oil stains have remained.

Is there any hope ? I'm heartbroken..

I know Uggs are ugly but they're so comfy and warm. I love them !

You’re never going to wear them outside so it doesn’t matter. Continue using them as indoor slippers you can cook in.

Try cornstarch and then brushing the spots with a soft toothbrush.

Fairy liquid cuts through grease, you’d have to test it wouldn’t stain on an inconspicuous area first though.

some tips to try here first.

Try dry shampoo on them. It works on clothes.

Whaaat ?? Of course I'm going to wear them outside !!they're not slippers !

Another vote for fairy liquid

Have you tried putting them in a metal dustbin, setting fire to them, and then standing well back (with a bucket of water for health and safety reasons).

Really? I haven’t seen anyone actually wearing uggs outside for years. But I have been in people’s houses and they’re wearing their old pairs as slippers. I assumed that’s what you were going to use them for!

Hahaha yes I second this!

But if you really want the stain out then yes fairy liquid is the way forward

You can buy Ugg cleaning kits which I think have a shampoo in them?

Ignore the ugg haters. I sympathise but I wouldn't worry because as soon as you wear them outside they will get plenty more stains but they will still be so warm and comfy.

I got grease on a hoodie and tried a load of things including nail polish remover, fairy and wd 40. A couple of cycles of repeating all of those and it came off.

@Thedm every other girl under the age of 18 is wearing them where I live! They are v much back in fashion, the ultra low ones anyway.

Fuller's Earth powder absorbs grease from fabric.
Sprinkle on, leave overnight and brush off the next day.

Baby powder. Sprinkle and hoover it off.

I live in very central London and see loads of people wearing them every day (including me) very much in, especially the minis and ultra minis. I'm not under 18 though, I'm in my 20s.

DO NOT put anything wet on the stain @uggggh

Before working on the stain with anything wet, which may set it in, apply some talcum powder or chalk to the area which should help to draw the grease out. After a few hours remove the powder by brushing it off with a soft brush.

Someone said they were repelling. Well clearly not!

Hahahaha

@IsadoraQuagmire yes sorry I didn't mean it was just under 18's wearing them, just that they seem very popular with teens! I'm mid 20's and have got myself a pair of pink ultra minis

That reply on here is an absolute masterclass in the Mumsnet pass-agg tone. My days.

You can buy Ugg cleaner. Many years ago my sister was pregnant and was about to give birth she bleed a lot all over her Ugg boots - the chestnut colour with the beige fur. I mean bright red, they were covered in blood.

amzn.eu/d/eyXJJv6 - I'm pretty sure her partner used this one, they come up brand new.

Isn’t it just!!!

I’m in central London and am seeing a lot of Uggs on people younger and more fashionable than me.

Can’t help with the stains though OP, but it seems like you’ve had some good tips above.

You can get Stain Devils for oily stains, or Tesco do their own version, which is a roll-on. Eucalyptus oil also works, believe it or not, but I don't think that would be safe for suede.

Well what a shitty snidey comment. Slow hand clap to you.
