    Are they wax/oil boots or the suede ones? If they're waxed/oiled you should be able to rub the marks off or you can buy a wax/oil spray which will cover any discolouration from rubbing at them.

    If they're the suede ones you need to get a nubuck block and a suede brush. Rub gently at the marks with the block firstly. You're best off rubbing gently for a while to get rid of the mark rather than rubbing quickly and harder. When you've done that there'll be a little residue left on the boots. Brush this over with the bristle side of the brush and then with the rubber side. That should get rid of the marks. If not you'll need to include a cleaner spray before you use the brush. A foaming one is best for suede. Hope that helps :)
