OT boot crew, pls advice

[Buzz Killington]

About five years late to the party I ordered some Iron Rangers in Charcoal Rough & Tough because I have almost nothing for footwear. I want to make them much closer to black than their current color.

What do?

Buy a black pair instead of charcoal.

Have you considered rubbing actual charcoal on your charcoal boots so you can charcoal while you charcoal?

This is actually a common thing and I figured someone here knew which products to recommend.

But I guess not, D I C K

Dye

 

[HUGE]

Um, use black polish...?

 

[FryingPan]

Take 'em to a cobbler and have them dyed.

 

[Formz]

You can dye them yourself with leather dye.

 

[GonadWarrior]

Try some black polish in a spot and see if it gets dark enough for you

Oil seems to be the key from what I'm seeing on Reddit.

I don't know shit about it though, so I'll just go to Reddit.

Still shipping. The photos online make them appear darker than they are.

Here's a worn pair. They look sort of pre-distressed.

 

[nosaj]

Nice cuffs.
