If you are talking about Saddleback leather products, I own two for just over a year now: a wallet and a briefcase. Their products come in four colors: tobacco, chestnut, dark coffee brown and carbon. My products are in chestnut (tobacco is lighter, the others are darker) and they have not darkened in the last year.

My advice for what it is worth: Since my fiasco with Black Jacket (it kept coming off the leather and staining my clothing, chairs, etc.), I have learned quite a bit about various types of leather and leather jackets. My suggestion would be to try Pecard's leather conditioning on a small area that is not visible and see if it helps. The Pecard's might temporarily darken the leather a little but it eventually should return to normal. If you use Pecard's, follow the directions -- you are supposed to let it soak into the leather for at least 24 hours, if I recall correctly. If the black stuff is coming off the jacket now (try scraping a fingernail across it), don't use anything. Instead, bring it to a professional leather cleaners and they probably will have to clean it before you do any kind of treatment. For further research, check a web site forum called the "Fedora Lounge." In the section on outwear, they have a lot of information about leather jacket issues. Hope this helps. Good luck.

Usually that is the case with most oils. I have not used it on my greys. LEXOL makes a product specifically for NON_DARKENING. I do use LEXOL NEATSFOOT for NON-DARKENING on my light colored leathers. They have a 33 oz size here at a great price.As a chemiist I would only use a product formulated with NON-DARKENING properties on light colored leathers. Lexol Neatsfoot Leather Dressing.

I tried it and it did work. I used a regular black ink pen. You may have to go over it another time to make sure it's dark enough.

I have only used this product on darker colored leather, and so cannot answer your question. Would advise calling company

Yes, I did. It will darken it a little, especially in a scratch. I was unable to find a light color wax.

It does darken leather when applied. Does from dry & pale to darker gleaming. It has no stain, just the leather soaking up the moisturizers darkens things up. Spot test is all I can reccomend

Yes, the one i bought is darker but i just apply it lightly. You can apply more/harder for a darker tone.

W., this absolutely, without a doubt DOES darken leather. Most any petroleum/wax leather application will darken lightly tanned leathers. However, I've had good success with Otter Wax not darkening very much.

I'm not sure about how this shows up on fabric, I only use them on paper and I don't think fabric was the intended use. I can't imagine the yellow showing up on dark fabric if the orange didn't. Good luck

I wish I had some dark paste, because I have dark colored floors. I've been using the light paste on mine. But my guess is, unless you have serious scratches on your light floor, the dark paste shouldn't affect your color. It would only do that if there was a scratch to penetrate. Otherwise, it's just a wax finish

I have used it on light gray and light tan. I love it. I have used it for years and it is very good for the leather. If the leather is shiny a light buff is nice but not necessary. It will work with bonded leather as well. I probably have used it on a white leather jacket but I can't be sure. I would test but I can not see a reason you would have a problem.

Hello...yes I would recommend on any light coloured sinks just not dark as it tends to have a "bleaching" effect to it. Or I use barkeepers friend now and it is amazing to use and very inexpensive to purchase.

Yes, Sno-Seal will darken he surface of lighter leather. I used it on a pair of Columbia hiking boots I had just purchased, which were not a light brown, but a medium dark brown, and they were a noticeably darker after I coated them with Sno-Seal. I liked the look, but you need to be aware it will darken.

I have not had any problem with darkening and I've used this for years. I have a pair of boots that I've worn since the mid-1980s. This is all I've ever used on them, so I believe even over long use there is no cause for concern. I am not familiar with the harness you're using, but since it is dyed I would suggest you follow the caution to try it on an inconspicuous area of the leather first to determine what effect it may have.

You can mix it with their Crystal clear and it will get it to be lighter. If you visit their web site they have mixes you can do to get certain colors.

According to Bick, it will not darken leather; but they recommend checking. It has not darkened my boots; good stuff.
