Angelus Leather Dye, Permanent Leather Dye for Shoes, Boots, Bags, Crafts, Furniture, & More - 3 fl oz, Jet Black

Works well! I would recommend you to do some research into the process before you start. I definitely thought I had ruined my shoes at one point. Personally, I deglazed the shoes, applied olive oil, dyed 1 layer with blue dye, then 2 layers of black dye, buffed the shoes, then sealed with an acrylic finisher and conditioned. Overall, really happy with the results.

I used this to dye the white stripes on black Vans, so they don’t look so obnoxious. It’s definitely permanent. I used it on the brown collar area of a pair of Josef Seibels, because it looked odd on black shoes. It worked great. I also tried to use it on a larger area on some Flag LTD shoes. The area was too large, so it didn’t look right. On an area that large, it looked like an ink pen busted open on them.

Great coverage, quick drying! I have a beloved pair of pink leather flats that have lost their appeal through wear and tear. I refreshed them by dying them black, and they look like new. Very pleased!

Instructions easy to use but recommends wearing gloves when applying product. Thanks!

Have used both black and coffee colors. Extremely effective dye. Allowed items to sit for a few days after application and have not noticed any color transfer too other items.

Was a little worried it wouldn't last, but it's held up very well.I worried because it comes off your skin fairly easily with just sweat.

Awesome coverage, I used dawn dish soap to prep, then wore gloves to stain, use a barrier for surface, will stain anything it touched

This dye works! Does it work on leather shoes? I don't know! It definitely works on skin (which is leather I guess), tiles, stainless steel, kitchen sinks, walls, wood, dog bowls, and rolls and rolls and rolls of paper towels.I have a pair of navy blue pumas - my favorite shoes - that I've had for years. They've gotten pretty faded so I thought "hey! let me try to re-dye these! what could go wrong?"An exploding bottle could go wrong. An exploding bottle all over your kitchen.I was excited to get this product, and I opened the amazon package to see a nice little box. The box even has a little cut out area for you to put the bottle when you're using it to prevent spills. How thoughtful, I thought. Well I turn over the box to see what's written on the other side and the bottle leaps out of the box straight to the floor.Now, did I black out for a second? No, everything is blue. Navy blue. I didn't black out, everything is just now covered in dye. I see the bottle on the floor, the few drops of dye slowly dripping on the floor, and with haste I picked it up like that might help. No, no, no, that doesn't make a difference. So I grab paper towels and start wiping like a mad man, but it only gets worse! I made myself a human sized dying dauber and the blue just spreads and smears, no matter how many paper towels I use.I'll try bleach - that will at least stop the blue from spreading, but somehow it just changes the blue to a dark gray. I'm so confused, I just wipe the blue/gray around as my blue tears slowly roll down my blue face and my newly-blue clothes.Here's a short list of products that will not fade this dye:Alcohol, rubbing (although drinking alcohol will hopefully fade this from my brain)Stainless steel cleanerStove cleanerWindexGrease RemoverPaper TowelsSpongesOne product kind of changes it's color:Bleach3-stars because clearly it works.I've never found the cap to the bottle. Maybe Angelus uses magic to keep the bottle closed during shipment. That's can't be right, then they could use magic to clean it up for me. The cap is definitely hiding from me on purpose. It's slowly dying something in the house, and is ready to haunt me in my dreams. If I ever see small navy blue circles in the house, I'll know it's still here.
