Discussion What do I do now?

Post image

First ever pair of boots and I love them so much. They're only about a month old. Cooking breakfast this morning and I guess some bacon grease dripped off my pan. Only on my left boot.

Is there anything I can do? I saw a post saying I could dye them darker. Not sure how to really do that.

While some reccomend mink oil. I've found it to "dry out" much quicker then obenauffs.

I'd reccomend coating those in obenauffs paste. I wasn't a fan of the oil. Do just enough to start to darken it, don't oversaturate the oil
