TRG the OneTRG Easy Dye

I bought this to recolour a bargain leather jacket which was advertised as burgundy but was more of a dark brown when it arrived. I was skeptical about dyeing leather a lighter shade than the original, but this stuff did the trick. One coat of Bordeaux dye was enough to transform the colour into a real burgundy (attached picture shows before and after colours).The bottle did a full coat of a UK size 10 jacket with just a little left over, using a light coat as per the instructions.The colour is just slightly patchy in places now that it's dry, so I'll be grabbing another bottle to do a second coat, but I'm pleasantly surprised by how well the initial coat came out.

Had already bought this from my local market at a dearer price and used it on new leather boots - it worked in most places but peeled off in the creases so I would advise anyone using it to TAKE YOUR TIME WITH THE PREPARATION and scuff up the surface really well before using it. I actually used a scourer aswell as the back of the sponge this time and got all the shiny surface off the old colour before re-applying and it works best if you dab rather than wipe as you get better coverage. It now looks great and I have loads left if I want to use it on anything else - the colour is a really intense rich dark ruby red - love it!

Brilliant colour, excellent coverage total transformation! Didn't expect such good coverage. One bottle for a pair of nubuck boots with about a 5th of the bottle left!Nubuck looks more like leather after the treatment, and I've done a few pairs of nubuck to leather conversions using just coloured polish, which is a more subtle colour effect.Tis the season to be rainy though, so will review after a few trips in bad weather ☔

Price is a little high compared to more established brands but its a good little dye that spreads well. The only thing I would recommend is to add a few drops of water to it - as it is a little sticky when it dries on leathers and feels slightly tacky in a manner of speaking. It sticks to everything thereafter - so best solution is that since the dye adheres well to material you use a few drops of water to thin it down a little and once dry apply a leather finish gloss or wax and that resolves the problem.Would buy it again, despite the price.

This was a bit of an experiment, I had some shoes which needed to be revived, the colour is not exactly what I wanted but it's fine now it's done and the shoes look a lot better. It's very easy to use but make sure you don't get it on parts that should not be dyed. Take time to decide on the couloir you want and make sure the leather is clean before you use the sponge to rough up the leather. Otherwise it's great.

The package arrived on day expected. The dye was easy to apply to shoes although I used a brush instead of the sponge provided. The dye dried fairly rapidly and the colour was as advertised. There is still a third of the bottle left in case I have to touch up the shoes. The shoes look really good.

I am so impressed. My dull grey boots now have a new lease of life. Hello red!!!

Completely useless. I spent a very long time removing the polish and preparing my mid-calf black boots for this dye. I then used two coats with 24-hour drying period in between. Came home after wearing them the first time to find the grey dye had peeled and flaked badly wherever the leather creased. In fact I could peel large piece of it off easily. Now I have to try and take off ALL the grey stuff to even get back what were a nice pair of boots! I am going back to Dylon shoe dye, which never gave me this problem.
