Wearing my first pair of AE's today, Merlot Fifth Ave bought from the bank about a year ago. The dye on the tongue is splotchy, but since that's always hidden and they're otherwise perfect, I'm happy with them .

Wow!! I just ordered some Leeds, from North Charleston, and had an interaction with Ashley. All I can say is WOW! She is absolutely spectacular! All the accolades she gets on here are certainly well deserved. I’ve heard people comment on Kristle from Jeff, OH, but Ashley has it all over Kristle.

@Neo1 , can you believe this is the first time I've worn these in 3 months? I think I'm going back to the original black laces, or at least dark brown. I'm not liking the tan laces right now.

Dont - im liking the whole thing, tan included.

She definitely has some excitement for her work.

First post so be gentle. I got these off of eBay this morning so I don't physically have them. What's the best way to fix this? It really doesn't appear too bad, but I just was curious if any had dealt with this before.
You can rebuff with some black polish but then you might run the risk of it still remaining uneven. As @madhat already suggested, stripping it bare and THEN reburnishing might be your best recourse.
