my dogs done something similar, but as it's him i dont mind.

i used leather polish and it's come up a lot better, but you can still see. any ideas on a postcard....
 
I would try and find a specialist, like these guys for example:

Sure glad I have one around the corner if anything like that happened on mine!
 
I've been using Gliptone's Liquid Leather Scuffmaster products, but after the first couple of applications the seat seems to have stopped scuffing, although I'm putting that down to me learning how to get in & out of the car without touching the bolsters :P

looks like the damage might need professional touch up. There are some mobile guys who will do it. Not sure what the results would be like though :?

I treat my seats with Autoglym leather care about three times a year. In between I have resorted to a little show polish to keep friction to a minimum. That and as mmm-five says perfecting a 'hop in' that avoids the side bolsters. Oh and no buckles,chains, studs etc

I need to see it really but roughly £30
 
Fixed something similar on mine where the seatbelt was wearing on the side bolster, just some black boot polish left for 30min to dye the light scuff marks to similar colour of the dark grey seats then autoglym leather care cream to blend it all in and take off any excess so it didn't leave shiny polish marks. Worth a try :)

Hi, I too had marks on my leather which disappeared completely with the application of a liquid black shoe polish - apply and buff-up before fully dry.
