For dye transfer stain as may be interpreted from first picture and worn at edges as seen from close-up pictures; the recommended kit is to use Aniline Leather - Worn Refinishing Kit A8

Restorative Cleaning is done in this sequence of process:
Prep-4.4 > Cleaner-3.8 > Rinse-3.0

Leather Rejuvenating is done in this sequence of process:
Hydrator-3.3 > Fatliquor-5.0

Leather Tightness is rectified with:
Impregnator-26
Note: This leather tightening is for below surface. Since it’s to be done on pastel color darkening effect has to be tested prior to actual application.

Leather Surface Smoothening is rectified with:
Topcoat-79G
Note: This is done by smoothening the rough texture while the product dries with a leather Spatula-6 and fine sanding with repeat until satisfaction.

Color Refreshing is best done with activating the dormant dyestuff within the leather structure with:
Hydrator-3.3, than using custom matching Dye-21. (Dye-21 come with 8 Standard colors and all others is custom match from these colors).
Note that Topcoat-79G will enhance the color too.
