Jerry can set us straight if I'm off base, but I think any time leather gets wet it will at least take on a darker tone, and probably shrink a little bit when it dries. If the entire holster has been soaked, it may dry out to the darker tone in a fairly even fashion. Leather does NOT like heat! Air drying is best. Rubbing pure lanolin repeatedly into a warm holster can make its leather more flexible, but it, too, darkens the leather.
