Leather Chap
Posted July 14, 2009

How should I darken my leather chaps?
I purchased leather suede brown chaps. They are two light of a brown for my show outfit, anyway I can darken them?
Shame shame, everyone knows the english riders are cooler 
Just kidding, don't hurt me!
Anyway, I'd talk to any leather workers that happen to work near where you live. I know there are processes to redye leather and suede, but I wouldn't recommend oiling or polishing them, since they are suede. In my experience, leather does naturally darken over time, although this may not be the length of time nor the amount of control you'd like to have over the process.
Short version: I'm almost certain it's possible, but it should be performed by a professional.
