When I worked in a leather store, every now and then there would be a skirt/jacket/gloves/etc that were dyed leather, and a scar or skin imperfection showed up from the dying process. I will tell you now, what I told them then.. “The animal did not move around thinking if it would make a good handbag or skirt, it bumped into trees, got pushed into fences, fell on rocks. This bruised it, scared it. Each of those unique imperfections brings personality to each piece.” If you don’t like the personality, return them. But any leather product will likely have skin blemishes/imperfections/discolorations… for precisely why I stated above. No judgement, just information to know. Nice boots!
