Once a 2000s staple, the Ugg boot has made a triumphant comeback.

However, there is one issue with the sheepskin boots, and that’s how to clean them.

(If you don’t have that kit, we’ll share more suggestions in a minute.)

First, grab your washcloth and dampen the dirtiest spots.

Next, dampen your washcloth again, squeeze it out, and pat your boot all over.

This step is to stop waterlines from forming and creating an uneven look.

Finally, stuff your boots with paper towels and leave them to dry.

The paper towels will allow your boots to keep their shape as they dry.

Keep in mind that this isn’t the only way to clean your Ugg boots.

The brand recommends using a suede brush for dry stains before going all-in with the above steps.

There are plenty of alternative solutions to rescue your Ugg boots from being stained.

PerThe Spruce, items that most of us have at home already can help refresh your Uggs.

For example, baking soda can help with odor.

Simply sprinkle 1/2 cup into each boot, and wait for it to work its magic overnight.

Just see to it to vacuum out every inch of powder in the morning to prevent even more mess.

White vinegar is another common household ingredientthat could preserve your Uggs from ruin.

According toGood Housekeeping, it can be used to remove salt stains picked up from winter sidewalks.

Create a 50/50 mixture of water and vinegar before gently applying this mix to the stains with a washcloth.

Rinse it off with plain water, and then dab dry with a clean cloth.

This should help to remove the worst of the salt marks.
