Rub a leather conditioner into the inside of the boot (I like Kiwi mink oil) and wear it as long as you can tolerate. If you are not initially able to zip it all the way, heel lifts may help with positioning. I know when I put mine on, I initially have to put my heel all the way down to zip it up to the ankle, then stretch the back of my leg and create a gap under the heel to get them to zip over the calf. Be as active as you can while wearing them. Do this until you have reached the desired size.

I want to change the color of a pair of boots from brown to black, will this work for this purpose?

If the boots are leather it should. It depends on the boots. It may be cheaper/easier/safer to buy a new pair of boots.

They can, but it is better to just wear them since they stretch out faster that way and have a better shape (since they conform to your foot over time).
