The store didn't have any stock of the brown shoe.
Only one way round it.

Step 1: The Stuff
You will need Shoe Dye, Latex or rubber gloves, white spirit, a soft cloth, a dish, and a small brush.
I made the dish out of a soda can.

Step 3: The Result
Cover your work area, wear your gloves,
make sure you are in a well ventilated space.
Give the shoes a first coat of dye, try to spread it evenly.
Leave to dry for about an hour.
Give them another coat if needed.
