Saphir Oiled Leather Cream
The Easy Way to Fix Scuffs and Revive Your Dark Brown Boots.
Some boots are built to handle the elements: mud, rain, and daily wear. But over time, the weather dries out the leather, and hard use leaves light-colored scuffs and scratches. Saphir’s Oiled Leather Cream in Dark Brown is a deep hydration treatment that also packs a healthy dose of premium dark brown pigment. It sinks right into the leather to restore its natural moisture while safely blending away surface wear and tear.
- Wipe off any loose dirt or dust with a brush or cloth.
- Massage a tiny amount of the colored cream into the leather using a clean cotton cloth, paying extra attention to faded areas or light-colored scuffs.
- Let the boots sit for about 5 minutes so the leather can fully absorb the protective oils and pigments.
- Give them a quick brush or buff with a clean cloth to blend the color evenly and bring back the original texture.
Quick Tip: Because this cream contains pigment to hide scuffs, it is highly recommended to test a tiny dab on a hidden area of the boot first (like the back heel) to ensure the dark brown shade blends perfectly with your leather color.
Best For: Dark brown boots made with casual matte finishes, distressed leathers, oily or greasy leathers, and nubuck.
The Color Advantage: Specially pigmented to cover up light-colored scuffs, scratches, and color fading on dark brown leathers.
Skip This For: Black, tan, or medium brown boots, sleek shiny dress leathers, exotics, or standard nappy suede. For other colors or high-gloss leathers, use a matching colorway or a neutral cream instead.
