Description
Bama Colour Renovator Red 75ml – a nourishing colour-restoring lotion that revives faded suede and nubuck and keeps it soft, protected and breathable.
Suede and nubuck are lovely materials, but they are delicate – rain, sunlight and everyday wear gradually pull the colour out and leave them looking dull and tired. This is the little bottle I keep for exactly that moment. The Bama Colour Renovator in Red does three jobs at once: it refreshes the colour with fine pigments, feeds the leather with conditioning oils to keep it supple, and improves water-repellency – all while letting the material breathe. A vibrant true red that brings faded red suede and nubuck trainers, boots and bags back to a bold, even colour.
Because it is a liquid with a built-in sponge applicator rather than an aerosol, it gives you lovely, precise control – perfect for touching up toes, edges and worn spots on shoes, boots, trainers and accessories. It is a proper multi-tasker, really: colour, conditioner and a water-repellent finish all in one small bottle, which is exactly why it has earned a permanent place in my own shoe-care kit at home.
Why choose the Bama Colour Renovator in Red?
- Restores rich colour – the red pigments boost faded tones and even out worn, patchy areas for a fresh, uniform finish.
- Nourishes and conditions – built-in conditioning oils keep suede and nubuck soft, supple and looking cared-for, not just coloured.
- Breathable protection – it improves water-repellency without clogging the leather, so it is safe to use on shoes with waterproof or breathable (TEX) membranes.
- Precise, mess-free application – the sponge applicator lets you place colour exactly where you need it, ideal for touch-ups and detailed areas.
- Handy compact size – the 75ml bottle is easy to store and take with you, so a quick refresh is always to hand.
How to use the Bama Colour Renovator
A few simple steps and your suede will look like new again:
- First remove any dirt and dust with a suede brush so the surface is clean and dry.
- Shake the Bama Colour Renovator bottle well before use.
- Dab the sponge applicator and apply the lotion evenly across the surface, working it gently into the nap.
- Leave it to dry completely.
- Brush the suede once more with a suede brush to lift the nap and reveal that lovely, even suede look.
I personally recommend testing on a small, hidden area first and building the colour up in thin layers – it is far easier to add a little more than to take it away.

Frequently asked questions
Will Bama Red revive my faded red suede?
Yes – the red pigment re-covers faded and worn areas to restore a bright, even colour. Test first and apply thin, even coats for the most natural result.
Will it make my suede stiff or shiny?
No – the conditioning oils keep the leather soft, and a quick brush afterwards restores the natural, matte suede nap. It refreshes colour without glazing the surface.
Can I use it on waterproof shoes?
Yes – it is breathable, so it will not block the membrane. That makes it a great choice for suede and nubuck walking shoes and boots with a waterproof or TEX lining.
