CAN YOU CHANGE THE COLOUR OF A LEATHER JACKET?
Re-dyeing leather a completely different colour, often leads to more problems than solutions. Leather is a porous, natural material and its original dyeing process is done during manufacturing under controlled conditions. When you try to re-dye it a different colour, the new colour may not penetrate evenly, this is especially noticeable over larger areas compared to a small areas such as a purse or shoes. This can result in patchy spots, streaks, or an unnatural finish.
Your jacket might end up looking worse than before, with a "faded" or "blotchy" appearance that can't be easily fixed.
You are also at risk of damaging the leather's integrity by re-dyeing as it often involves several layers of colour causing it to lose its suppleness and durability. What was once a flexible, comfortable jacket could become stiff and uncomfortable, shortening its lifespan significantly.
In summary, we don’t normally offer changes of colour as it often diminishes the item's value and appeal rather than enhancing it, we always suggest retaining the original colour.
