Cars with leather interiors need detailing on a regular basis to look half-decent.
American leather comes with a durable vinyl coating and refinishes and re-colors well. Seats that look like a detailed road map do well to be restored and this increases the resale value of a car by several hundreds of dollars.
To properly detail your leather seats, first thoroughly clean all leather panels to be restored. Once you have achieved your level of surface smoothness, seal all of the cracks and sanded areas using a water-based leather sealer or primer. Be diligent in this process, as if the leather is not sealed adequately it will absorb moistness and then stiffen.
You can re-color or re-coat water based leather using vinyl paint. The result is highly flexible. The gloss can be adjusted with a duller or gloss reducer additive. Begin with the lightest color of the pigment structure which is White, then yellow (90% of time it is yellow,) then black. This helps to dirty up the mix a little bit. The eye matches best! For practical reasons it is a good idea to work on both colors and repairs. Do some good damage to your practice piece and then work to repair and re-color it.
If you don't feel comfortable doing leather detailing or color matching yourself you can always find a detail shop to do it for you.
