Clean the slippers with a damp rag. If the slippers are heavily soiled, a suede cleaner and conditioner or a sheepskin shampoo can be used. Allow the slippers to dry before proceeding.
Cut a section of the patch from your repair kit so it is slightly larger than the hole or tear. Apply adhesive to the backside of the patch and slip it into and under the hole or tear, adhesive side up, so that it sticks to the underside of the sheepskin. Push the hole or tear together, press down on the patch and allow the adhesive to set. A patch is not absolutely necessary. If the hole or tear is quite small or if you are unable to get to the underside of the sheepskin, this step can be skipped.
Fill in the hole with a thin layer of the leather repair compound. Spread on the compound using the small knife that comes in the kit. Allow the compound to dry. The leather compound dries clear, soft and flexible.
Spray the area with the leather spray and brush the area with a suede brush to restore the original nap.
