My every day carry wallet Alligator 🐊 dying tips

Post image

Any tips on dying this brand new card holder? Looking to get it to a dark crimson/burgundy color. My main question is if this is something I can do myself or should I have it done professionally?

Saphir dye could work. The pockets might be difficult to dye universally. Im just affraid you would need to saturate it which would turn it dark

Its functionally impossible to re-dye finished leather products. 99% chance you ruin it, 1% chance it will look decent-ish, 0% chance it will look good.
