Hi karm,
would you wear them again with the stain on? If the answer is no, try rubbing neat washing machine liquid in to the stain then wash in the washing machine on a cool wool wash with normal quantity of washing machine liquid in your machine. I don't know how they'll turn out, it's a bit of a gamble! xxx

I have heard of people holding marked suede over steam, but your mark is oil based so I would try the w.m.l. May be in an old pillow case in your machine x

I thought talc/flour could be used to "soak up" the oil, but that sounds a bit optimistic.

maybe you should dye them another colour, if all else fails.
