I have a Selway quiver. Is there any way to darken up the raw hide they use on it???

give Selway a call,  im sure they can tell you how.  I have darkened standard "leather" by applying conditioner/oil and leaving in the sun for a day.

Mine did the same thing after awhile. I rubbed it with some black walnuts I picked up after the hulls had turned dark. Darkened it pretty good. Use rubber gloves if you do it.

I purchased the Quick Detach Selway Quiver and was disappointed with the coloration of mine. Mine has two yellowish blotches on one side. The rest is a nice even brown color. I called Selway and they said this is common? All the quivers in their ads are all even colored. Has anybody experienced this?

Bees wax will waterproof as well as darken it.
