Thanks all of you. I'll see if I can find the one you recommended Smithy. What you have in Norway we should have here.
But I'll probably buy the Pecard one cause so many have recommended it.
Have any of you used the Pecard's swede silicone liquid dressing. Someone on another forum recommended it but I don't know. I've used someting called raingard and maybe it's also silicone but I got the impression that one shouldn't use plastics on leather. So what do you use on your suede shoes?

That's not the same Lederbalsam I have used. I need to get that tube out and look...
For suede shoes, as far as I know, there are no products that you can apply that will moisturize them without ruining the suede finish. But to clean them, you need to find a little kit. Cobblers should have something, or even a good shoe store. The kits usually include a two-sided block ('suede eraser') and a very still small brush. The stone is used to sort of sand out dirt and imperfections, the brush is used to brush away dirt and bring up the roughness again.
