Does anyone know how to get the worn seat effect on the leather texture, below?

I got this texture in part of a build kit. It's a sample texture for the seat of a stool. I have the shading maps, too, but here's the thing. The shading map doesn't have the darkness that's in the middle of this texture. That darkness in the middle gives the finished stool seat the illusion of indentation and wear from use.

Does anyone know how to create this effect on a texture?

Since it's not part of the shading maps I'm guessing it's either another texture or something you can do in photoshop or gimp (I'm using gimp.). I tried dodging and smudging, but that gave an effect that was too rounded and inconsistent. The darkness in this texture looks more like a gradient fill or something.

Sorry. I know this is a bit of a wonky texture question, but I'd really like to know how this effect was done. I'd love to have my seats and cushion look more realistic.
