Collonil's Nanopro and Woly's Wet Blocker are recommendable universally for most leather types and textile materials in shoes. Their prices (depending on the shop of course) and moisture protection capabilities are pretty equal IMO so it's up to oneself to decide which one is better. Both are very good.
I've noticed a little side effect with the nanotech sprays tho.. at least with me they manage to make some leather shoes and trainers squeak annoyingly loud unlike the shoes did originally while with non-nanotech sprays like Woly Protector 3x3 there's never been such an issue. Maybe it's just me hearing voices in my head.

Before ruining your suede soops by using oil, you better go to the local shoe store and ask for instructions on what to use to restore and preserve their original colour. I think there are some shoe care stuff for nubuck and suede that do such things.

I doubt it'll have much of an impact but the toothpaste/toothbrush scrubber method may lighten it alittle!!nothing ventured nothing gained.
But as the others have said very little you can niko and as yet no1s found a product that gets rid of yellowing.
One thing i would say though is although it may seem very noticable to you once there on your feet the likelyhood of anyone else noticing is doubtful so ROCK EM m8
Ya never know with general wear the other foot may yellow/fade to same level ish!!
It's not the size of the feet!!it's the amount of quality on em
