Any way to color leather shoes black?

I got these pretty cool sneakers from Kenneth Cole, in the picture they looked completely black, but when I received them I noticed they come with blue accenting as well that I don't like that much.

Would there be any relatively easy/effective ways to color it black or make it darker and less noticeable without ruining the shoes?

You could just dye the shoes with Fiebings Leather Dye, but I'm not sure how leather of that quality will do with the dye.

Dear OP,

Those "shoes" are not in any way SF approved. You won't get any love for them here.

Sincerely,

Your pal, Harvey
