>>> Is there anything I can do to save my boots?
Yes the boots can be save, it is aniline type but need to positive identify if this is an Oil Pull-up fashion type will require additional treatment.
Do a pull or stretch test (with pictures) if the stress areas do lightens up.
Does this leather easily scuffs with fingernails scratches and lightens up, and does it disappear when rub or heat applied?
Is picture #4 shows leather still wet or damp, or it is completely dry with a darkening effect.
