bleach on black leather does hardly anything except dry out the leather making it stiff and prone to cracking. do not leave shoes in bleach overnight the result will be shit.
In the initial post I suspect that the bleach did very little, if not nothing. Sandpaper is what you want to use, specifically wet dry. A light rub with this will make black an distressed grey colour and if you don't like the result polish will reverse the result.
One thing which is cool though is bleaching black shoelaces to match distressed shoes if you just brush them lightly the plastic covered ends remain black, or whatever the original colour was. nice result.
