Those own pair of Layer-O blood red reverse shell cordovans, what have you all used to nourish the leather without darkening it? I used a small amount of Saphir Creme Universelle(Lanolin, Beeswax & Jojoba) and it appears to have made the spot a little darker. Let me know. Thank you

Has anyone done anything to care for “oiled” leather? I have a Rick Owens oiled leather bauhaus jacket. Thick black leather. It’s around 7 years old now (from fall 14). I’m going through my closet and took it out today - hasn’t been worn in at least two years (I need to drop a few pounds). Leather feels very stiff and dry, and a few of the scuffs that I caused have a bit of the greenish under leather color showing.
Any reccos as to how to treat at home? I’ve used some safir leather on shoes but didn’t want to risk it with a jacket, especially given that it’s not average leather.

Anyone know what Saphir products should I apply to condition BBS horse leather stuff, jackets and boots, vegetable tanned, object dyed ones? What about with vibrant colors like the red BBS leathers? Is conditioning going to hurt the original color? Thanks.
