There are so many jeans that seem to be saturated with dye, especially the indigo blue ones. I can understand your concern. I do have a pair of light colored leather club chairs, which are heavily used. I clean them with a good leather cleaner a couple times a year, and they still look great. I haven't experienced the dye issue, but maybe anyone with the oversaturated jeans haven't sat in those chairs. My3dogs, what a great resource! I bookmarked it for future reference.

We have a Palliser leather sectional that is 12 years old and has spent almost 8 years in a finished basement (We move it around when we redecorate). It also is leather with a vinyl match. It has worn extremely well and besides a few scratches it picked up moving from house to house, I don’t see any issues. The leather seating surface is soft and it has survived a burst pipe flood and the extremes of gas fireplace heat (when teenagers leave the fireplace on overnight) and chillier winter temperatures. We are in Southern Ontario so our basement does range in temperature and humidity. We do have a dehumidifier that we turn on from time to time but we certainly don’t run it all the time resulting in some variance in humidity throughout the year. I have never noticed any impact on the sectional. It has been a solid piece of furniture for us and has survived the abuse our kids and cats have put it through. .

Try uploading a photo with a piece of white paper to help color balance. If that's not possible, match a paint sample chip to the leather color, then give brand and paint color name.

I don't see why not. Or more accurately I am finishing up my living room with the help of a designer and after much deliberation selected two occasional chairs in blue leather to complement my sofa and vintage carved wood armchair. I selected leather deliberately because I needed a *fabric* that would work with the existing upholstered sofar and chair. My sofa is a solid blue mohair velvet and the chair is a pattern with complementary blue tones. Solid fabric wouldn't work and neither would pattern. The leather I chose is perfect because the leather doesn't "clash" with the existing sold sofa and the specific shade of blue works because it picks up the lighter gradations of blue in the sofa when the light hits it. Leather comes in so many different colors. It is only in showrooms that choices are brown, black, cream and the occasional *wild* navy blue. Even the particular softer blue I wanted had four different subtle variations. I was able to lay them all out on the sofa and pick the one that worked best with the sofa.
