Hi!
Some good procedure to remove this stains on acorn leather.
I have tried with water but leather loses color.
Wich cream color is best to restore original acorn color and preserve it from this kind of stains?
Thanks

The Acorn colour does have a tendency to pick up such stains.
You could do the following:
1. U need to clean them. Take some saddle soap. Give them a through cleaning. The Stow leather is a tough leather, so don't worry too much. Give them a good through cleaning. Let them dry for 5-6 hours.
2. If the stains are still there, then go for a Saphir Creme Surfine Cream shoe polish. Number of application depends on u and the state of the stain.

3. I personally just put some conditioner on it and then go for the Saphir Medaille D'Or Pate-de-Luxe Wax Polish. I personally put 2-3 coats of wax on my show boots. It creates a good layer of wax between the leather and environment. I will always act as a barrier and prevent the frequency of further stains significantly.

I don’t think it has to be an exact colour.Quick question, when it comes to belts, it’s best to have a similar colour as boots, however, does this apply to bags too? I’ve found a nice bag that matches the Acorns but not sure if there’s a “rule” or if contrast is better, like a darker brown.
Not strictly Trickers so forgive me
I bailed on the waxy eaton. It was the toe medallion that broke the deal unfortunately. Will probably regret it when you all post pictures!
The Trickers anniversary boot is only available through Mr Porter and a bit underwhelming. Peeved with Mr P as sales are region specific.
