I was recommended Woolies for Trim - Leather Renovation Kits by the inlaws some time ago. We sent off a sample of our suite taken from the underside of the settee then they matched the exact colour and sent us a kit of cleaner restorer etc. Results were superb and I'd recommend this stuff to anyone.IIRC it's not cheap but really does do the job.

I've used this stuff to re-colour a sofa which had been bleached by direct sunlight over the years. It did exactly what it said on the label.

Is it still possible to get leather paint which could be used to repair badly worn and wrinkled leather upholstery.
