Help with the leather treatment...

[lzas]

I bought a 2007 Black Work, but seems the black is a little faded, is there any product I can use to make the colour better? Also, it is my first bag and I read that we should put on some product first, someone could help me with this ?
I have attached the link for the auction and there are pictures showing the colour.

Thanks!

congrats on your new work. have you gone thru the stickies? there're loads of info detailing what products were used, along with before and after pictures. not everyone used the same product/s. you should take the effort to read up and decide from there which product/s to use.

Hi, I have a 2007 black and for whatever reason it is not as jet black as I would like it. So I spoke to Barbara at Loving My Bags to see which of the many products she would recommend to help me and she said she felt the Shine Restore would make the color darken. I only just received the product and haven't had a chance to try it. Will let you know how it works. i hope to get to it tomorrow.

Is yours RH or GGH? My SS07 Black GGH Work isn't jet black either, but my FW07 RH city is really dark black - and at first the Work color bothered me, but now I love her just the way she is!

HI, my work is RH and the colour is similar to yours. I like it, but I think would look better if it was like your Black city.
Your bags are beautiful!

HI Lorrmich, thank you, please let know what you think, if works. I hear that Lubriderm makes the colour darker, have you tried this one?
