To be honest I haven’t tried properly over a number of shoes to differentiate results of chrome vs veg tanned leather or with different finishes, but I believe the greater issue is the synthetic coatings applied to lower cost shoes. You need to strip back everything until you get a dull matted leather, that can absorb whatever colouring you apply.
Thanks. I will possibly try the theory on these before I tackle my Loake shoes.
