so i've got a pair of shoes that i think are too light in color, is there any way i could go about making them darker looking?
this is what they look like now
would polishing them with brown shoe polish work? would that wear off after a while?
thanks for any help

do an SF search for antiquing or dyeing shoes, etc. there are a couple good threads that tell you how to do it and what results to expect.

Like breakz said, just polish with a darker brown polish. And repeat as necessary. Their a pretty light shade now, so they should take to the new colour quickly.Originally Posted by Lachy
i think they were lighter than that but my dad had them dyed. atleast, thats what my mom said.

Should go well. I polished a pair of PS dip dyes a month or so back, and the polish was far darker than I realized, and changed the colour quite a lot, and they were a solid brown to begin with. Be sure to post the results so we can check em out!
