Difficulty: Moderately Easy

1. If the stain is from pizza, body oils, or other any other greasy substance, you should use a de-greaser first, then clean with a mild soap and finally, condition. Furniture Stuff makes a leather stain degreaser as well as an interesting line of products that work really well. For suede, the procedure to remove a stain is the same except that you'll use a cloth especially made for suede leather.
2. If the leather is pigmented, you can use any leather cleaner to remove the stain. Keep in mind that spot cleaning a leather stain is always difficult because water and chemicals react with it differently.
