Hi All,
Does anyone know a good reputable company/person in or around London who can touch up my Eastman Luftwaffe Jacket ? I purchased it used and it just needs a touch up in a few spots i.e down the front of the jacket by the zipper the dye has rubbed off all down the front of the jacket and a few other spots.

Many Thanks Chris

Oil will darken it for awhile, but for a permanent solution, you’ll need to color it. Black dye can go purple, so I mix in some brown.

Leather garments repair shops often use marker pens to do it. You REALLY don't need to pay to have this done.

I’ve used shoe cream on my Eastman jackets to touch in colour rub off, does need reapply every now and again.
