Can I use these to paint leather shoes?

I truly don't know as I've never tried to paint leather before w/anything. U could try it on an inconspicuous spot 1st to see how much would soak into the leather.

I am not familiar with those brands/types of shoes. However, I dressed up a pair of plain black canvas sneakers with white daisies using this kind of paint. I believe it would work with any kind of fabric shoe. A vinyl shoe, not so sure.

Acrylic paint dries harder. The finished product is stiffer. That might work for some areas on shoes, but you really want fabric paint to decorate fabric that will be worn.

I only tried on leather and enamel and didn't work, if you spray too much at the same time, inside may stain not outside of shoes. If you don't care of inside stain, you can try.

If the shoe streacher fits into the sandal, it will work. Im not really sure it will work by itself. The product worked real well when I wet my boots and used the kiwi spray. I assume that it would work on any leather, but you need to put some outward pressure on them.

I would assume so. I have used it on cow and deer leather without any problems. I wouldn't think twice about using it on any leather...okay, probably not suede. :)

Yes. If the leather is shiny and textured it will be perfect, think croc print or similar. If the leather is suede then this will darken the suede a bit.

I painted a pair of boots i have. Theyre not real leather but that fake shiny pleather and it worked great. It stuck really well. It covered nicely. I painted a black boot red and none of the black came through. It dried quickly. I did it overnight. I only used maybe two coats.

I used it on leather golf shoes and a micro fiber pullover, no problem. I have not used it furniture though and would do a small section first if I was you.

I would say it probably would not work well on leather boots, I would invest in some mink oil or a product specifically designed for leather

I don't see why not. I have lots of SAS shoes, and so far have not tried this product on them - but it worked beautifully on a hand-made Austrian leather muzzle for my dog. It did darken the leather a bit - so I assume that could happen with the shoes, too. Hope this helps!

I could not say. Find a test spot. I bought Vectra recently because I learned about it for designer shoes many years ago. I used it this time on leather furniture. You may find many other uses.

Don't know. My concern is not if it will dissolve the paint, it would be if it would damage the shoe. It is great stuff all around, so I might pick it up and try on a tiny section of the least valuable shoe. Let it sit for a minute, then check surface. For example with plastics, it will start to dissolve the plastic, so it will cause a haze on the surface. (nifty way to get "frosted" plastic lenses). Sorry I can't be more help.

I've used it on leather and even suede. It works very nicely. Sorry it took me forever to answer you.:)

I would think do. I use t hem in my work shoes, and I being a painter have to stand for long periods of time.

I use them for lettering on pallets. However, if you could normally draw on leather with oil-based paint, these Sharpies should work the same way. I love them!

Yes, they will work for shining shoes with wax shoe polish. HOWEVER, they are long, about the size of a dishcloth. So you would have to fold them into pads to make them efficient. I think it is a good thing since they will last longer. They are washing machine safe, but the dark beeswax polish I use on my one good piece of furniture left a stain. The stain does not rub off onto other things once the cloth is washed, and they do leave a nice satin shine.
