I used Dylon for suede and it worked very well.

Angelus or Saphir for dye. Saphir is more expensive but it's made for shoes specifically so the colours are all very shoe-like (also it comes with an applicator so no need to buy that too). Although I suspect with brown this won't be much of an issue. As for how to tips, there's a wealth of information on YouTube, it's not overly complicated but it might be worth checking how much your local cobbler would charge, may not be all that much more than buying all the supplies.
