I know that applying show cream will not change anything. Mine are in a tobacco/burnished whatever and many shades too bright.

Has anyone ever had their C&Js re-dyed at the factory? Experiences?

You can darken the colour of your shoes by using black or navy shoe creams as they contain dyes. It’s not as quick and dramatic as using dyes but you can develop your own patina gradually

Hint: re-read my initial post.

Your initial post states that applying shoe cream will Not change anything. I beg to differ as I have darkened my shoes using navy cream
