How to Clean a North Face Foxy Jacket

Northface is a brand of sporting goods such as ski jackets and apparel. One of the products in the Northface collection is the Foxy Jacket, which is made of suede. Unlike the other items in the Northface collection, which are primarily made of GoreTex, the suede material of the Foxy Jacket must be specifically cared for to prevent damage to the material. Like any other suede item, the Foxy Jacket requires a certain level of care when cleaning, otherwise you will destroy the jacket.

Instructions

    • 1

      Read the instructions in the Foxy Jacket carefully. Suede from item to item is generally the same, but the finish that different designers use on the material often requires different care.

      Invest in a suede eraser to remove stains and marks from the suede. Rubbing the eraser over stains in the opposite direction of the fabric removes the color, grease and stain from the material so it is clean once again. If the stain is still wet, you need to absorb the liquid with a paper towel or clean cloth by gently blotting the stain and then allowing it to dry completely before attempting to clean.

      Rub the newly cleaned jacket with a suede brush or a soft toothbrush to even out the freshly cleaned suede. This ensures that all fabric is facing the same direction, which makes the material appear softer, smoother and newer.
