Kind of looks like a water stain. Water stains can sometimes be removed or camouflaged by wetting the whole shoe until the leather is uniformly wet and a uniform colour. Condition with Lexol right over the top of the wet leather and then let dry. It get's trickier with light coloured leathers. Having said that, I am not certain that it's a water stain. I don't believe I have ever seen a water stain leave such a straight, thin line and no evidence of staining further from the "ebb."

I had the same thought. That looks like a manmade mark on the leather, maybe even pre-finish? Are these seconds?
