I used a small amount of shoe polish, then gave it a good cleaning again when I had my leathers.

Stains the leather back to black, makes wear less noticeable. Just make sure you get rid of the excess/don't sit on the seats for a while as you'll end up with nice black patches on your clothes.

Can see where the creases appeared, but the polish colours them all in nicely, and shines it up too.
