My leather seats are super comfortable and are in overall excellent shape. They could use a little recoloring. The coloring is not faded, just when you sit in them and look closely, you can see tiny flecks of missing color. Has anyone used any kind of leather restorer or even color restorer? They don't need reupholstering, just sort of freshening up.

There are many DIY kits. I have never used any so I can't recommend a product. I would take it to a professional who knows what they are doing if it's a large job. If it's just a spot here and there try one of the DIY Kits but make sure to look for reviews on the product.

I had some issues with cracked leather. I purchased a product from Pacific Leather Works I can't remember the name of the product at the moment. I will see if I can't find the bottle and I'll come back and share the name. Maybe it will help you out.

Take a look at Chilhowee Buffalo Butter, Advanced Conditioner & Restorer. They also have great leather products for use.

Jonesy, I know where you can get new seats at 60% off if your interested Private message me. The seats were purchased for my buddies bus conversion that was never finished. Flexsteel seats approximately 1 1/2 old.
