Cleaning gone wrong??

I picked these up around six months or so For work and they get pretty wet/muddy from time to time, but I’ve never waterproofed them or anything. On Tuesday, (it’s Thursday at the time of typing this) I ended up dusting all the dirt off then cleaned them with saddle soap. After leaving them dry for almost 48 hours, they look like this. My fear which I know is probably the case, is that the leather absorbed a bit of the solution. How can I reverse this?
