I have a black leather couch that is a little distressed. The color
has faded/worn off over the years. Is there anything I can use to
recolor it that won't rub off on people's clothing?

I do mine once in a while, it doesn't last but it is painless to do
and doesn't seem to rub off on clothing, but it must go somewhere.
I bought a quart from a shop on Ebay, that will likely last the rest
of either my life or the couches.

I'm pretty sure this is the one I bought:

I would suggest that is strictly a professional job.

You may want to ask on an automotive group; there are products
available for exactly this purpose but intended for car seats.

That said, I *like* the look of distressed leather, although I
understand that that may not be the look you're going for.
