Suede protector for light colors

I have a new pair of shoes that I haven’t debuted because I can’t figure out which suede protectant to use

They are a lovely taupe/dove color that I want to preserve.

What do you all recommend?

My shoe repair person recommended this product. I’ve used it on several pairs of suede boots and my olive Tahari leather jacket, which is like nubuck. It didn’t change the color at all.

I’ve had good luck with both of these on suede and nubuck. The Collonil was also highly recommended by Jaileen’s excellent shoe person, but I bought it a while ago and am not sure it is available in the same packaging. Multiple light coats with dry time between is key. And a well ventilated area.

Thanks Karen. I own some other Meltonian products and like them.

I spray my suede and fabric shoes with Shucare Nano Water Proofer and it keeps them looking good as well as not altering the colour. I have used it on these shoes.

I've used both of these Moneysworth and Best sprays on several light colored suede shoes, including yellow suede and
taupe nubuck.

The waterproofer also works on my cognac suede boot, light
grey snow boots, taupe microfiber fashion sneaker, and ancient sorel slippers I wear to take out the
garbage. Both sprays will darken while damp, but dry without any color
change.
