Artecho Black Leather Acrylic Paint — 1 oz Bottles for Shoes & Upholstery
Product description
Rich 1 oz bottles: The set contains twelve 1 ounce squeeze bottles of concentrated acrylic pigment, ready for immediate use. Each bottle is sized for small- to medium-scale repairs and customization tasks such as shoes, sneakers, boots, handbags, leather jackets, and upholstery.
Flexible, long-wearing formula: These paints use a flexible acrylic resin blend engineered to bend with leather fibers. When applied correctly and allowed to cure, the finish resists flaking and remains intact across high-flex areas like toe boxes, collars and seams.
Completely mixable: Every shade in the kit can be blended to produce custom hues, gradients, and subtle color transitions. The formula allows layering and color mixing for effects from gentle pastels to deep, saturated tones—useful for ombré sneakers, matching upholstery, or detailed artwork on leather garments.
Water-based and low-toxicity: The paints are water-based for simple cleanup while wet and formulated to reduce harsh solvents in typical craft environments. That makes them suitable for indoor projects and hobbyist use with standard safety precautions.
Quick-dry, multi-surface use: Dry time is relatively fast; finish varies from satin to semi-gloss depending on thinning and layering. Although optimized for genuine and faux leather, the acrylics also adhere to canvas, vinyl, fabric and wood, expanding their use for cosplay pieces, pet accessories, and other DIY projects.
Pros
- Flexible, durable finish that bends with leather
- Fully mixable for custom colors and gradients
- Water-based for easy cleanup and safer indoor use
Cons
- Small 1 oz bottles may run out on large jobs
- Some shades need multiple coats for full coverage
- No brushes or applicators included in the set
VerdictThis 12-bottle assortment delivers flexible, blendable acrylic color in convenient 1 oz squeeze bottles. The formula is made to move with leather and resist flaking, works on multiple surfaces, and cleans up with water before it dries. Ideal for small restoration and customization jobs, though larger projects may require extra bottles and a topcoat for maximum longevity.

Shae 5/5
Vivid pigments and long-lasting with topcoat
Love the colors—they blend smoothly. I sealed with a top coat and the result has held up really well. Application felt straightforward, like regular paint.

Too glossy, cracked in folds
It covered the leather nicely but dried with noticeable shine and cracked in creased areas.

Colorgirl 4/5
Bright, satin finish—small bottles
Bottles are modest but useful for smaller projects. Colors are bright and lean toward a satin sheen; darker bases often require a second coat for full opacity.

Gave old tennis shoes a new look
Used on stained white tennis shoes after washing left marks. Repainting the whole shoe covered the streaks and refreshed the look.

Paint-only — no extras included
Misleading packaging if you expect a full kit: just the paint bottles, no brushes or mixing trays. Also, the finish did not hold up long for me.
