Since I’m the queen of dropped food, greasy fingers, and mud smears, suede items become disposable. I keep them until they are hopelessly soiled and then they’re trash. Such a waste.

You can always try throwing a suede garment in the wash before trashing it. My sister-in-law did that with a beloved handbag, and it came out both clean AND useable.
Totally going to try washing with water and mild detergent! What do I have to lose?
I wash suede, actually throw it in the delicate cycle with the largest load option. Nothing damaged yet.
I had a suede shirt that I tossed in the wash and it came out fine, (I turned it into a vest so it doesn't have to be washed often now) Baby wipes are supposed to work too.
