A lot depends on the type of leather. Normally, if we're talking about a vintage Coach bag, I would bathe and condition it with Leather CPR and Blackrock, buffing in between coats. (You can search this thread for detailed how-to instructions.)
Is yours a vintage Coach bag, or something else? If you can post pictures, maybe we can offer more specific suggestions.
There here!!!!! The equestrian looks perfect like it was just made, but its vintage this year!the leather still squeaks 
when the flap and straps move.Someone must have went back in a time machine for this one.lol
whats this color? Camel? I thought it was british tan when i bought it..and the city bag is perfect too! Just needs a conditioning

Seems like your Equestrian color would be Toffee:
Thankyou! I'm never sure of what the color names are! Haha i said camel..is that even a color for coach? Lol
I'm never sure either, and continue to discover color names I've never seen. I just made a list of the "tans" I know of:
British Tan
Saddle
Buckskin
Honey
Camel
Buff (Sonoma)
Marigold (Sonoma)
Chamois (Sonoma, Hamptons)
Birch (Hudson)
I'm sure there are more!
It's actually a Patricia Nash purse and wallet that used to be cranberry, but is now a sad reddish/orange. I know this is a Coach forum, but you guys have some really good ideas, so I was hoping...Also, I've gone to a couple leather places and they haven't heard of Leather CPR, or Blackrock. They suggested Tarrago shoe cream?
You can get Leather CPR at Bed, Bath and Beyond. Sometimes it is at Tuesday Morning or Marshalls. Also sometimes a tackle shop will have it. I've seen Blackrock at a shoe repair. I usually order mine online. I also use Bick 4 and Saphir Creme Delicate for certain leathers, usually not Coach. Different types of leather react differently to different conditioners.
Sometimes conditioning will do wonders in bringing back color. Other times you might have to add some color to your conditioner to fix it. When I do this, I usually use acrylic paint or fabric puff paint mixed with a large proportion of conditioner. I try to stay away from actually dyeing leather as I've never found a dye that leaves the leather with the same suppleness and sheen.
I saw Banana , although , now that I think of it, not a neutral!
That looks great! Wonderful first job
It looks so much better - has a lovely sheen to it now.Thank you!That looks great! Wonderful first job

Oh my!! I had no idea! I thought there were only british tan, camel, and.. i guess thats all i knew of! Lol. Confusing.
This right here is pathetic! I have reported this as a fake so many times, commented its fake, others have commented its fake, (hello..its made in korea!)but poshmark wouldnt take it down, and someone bought it today on poshmark..this bag is disgusting! I have a feeling someone is going to be very disappointed..
