- Do not, under any circumstances, use a home multi-surface cleaner like Pledge on leather shoes that you care about.

If this existed Goodfellas would have lasted more than 2 hours
"all it needs was a little love and care... JUST LIKE YOU!"
"Shoe shine champions" great, now I'm gonna go down a Google rabbit hole. I'll be back in 6 hours
As you can see, the Saphir Renovateur is already more than enough to make the shoe look 150% better. So satisfying to see the shoe turn into a darker shade as it’s hydrated, like rain in the desert. 😄
This is better than some 30min tutorials
You just saved a hundred and fifty bucks.
"buff it off with a cloth and cold water and you've got a mirror shine". You make it sound so trivial 😂
I have one of those horsehair brushes... I use it on my actual horse though 😂 it's so soft, he loves having his face brushed with it.
I need that product for outsoles, my Tony Lama boots appears some scratches
Champions...? There are shoe shine champions?
Nice vid, you should do the before and after comparison, or just polish one shoe ❤
I used to get the Mirror shine for my School Uniform's Oxford Shoes with just normal Shoe Polish.. It's about Skill. :)
One small tip that you missed. Placing an ice cube in your water will help keep the wax from getting hot from friction when you’re polishing. Also avoid wax based shoe polishes (like saphire and Lincoln) when polishing on areas of the shoe that will crease. This is because the bending of the leather will crack the wax and leave a white residue. Instead use a polymer based shoe polish (like Kiwi) which is more flexible, and will not crack.
I was just thinking about this. In the 60's and 70's you could buy good quality (American, Canadian, UK made) shoes and leather goods at any medium level to upper level department stores. We would treat all of our shoes, coats, purses and blazers like this. I can still smell it. Boots were different, those had to be waterproofed. We took that quality for granted. I tried Shinola for leather bags but they were beyond mediocre. You are right about pledge. Don't use it. Pledge can turn white in the cold and damp.
Damn there’s really a championship for shoe shining. Some kid is out there like “ one day I’m gonna win”
Shoe shine champions😂😂😂
"According to world shoe shine champions"
Join the army , if you dont learn how to polish your boots ,then you will become ordinance fodder.
I was told by a cobbler to use hydrogen peroxide for us northerners who have to do with salt on the roads and parking lots in winter
