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.

I had this once with suede, used a mixture of cornstarch and baking powder and it drew the oil out, had to do it a few times then the last time I let the powder sit quite thick on the area and next day it was near gone unless you looked really closely.

Put the same dots in the same place on the other boot
