okay... reviving this old thread... Do you guys polish your designer shoes? What lengths do you take to protect your Manolos, Marnis, Louboutins, whatevers?
(Maybe this thread should be renamed Shoe Care... hint hint mods!

)
in my November 2004 issue of Self magazine, there's a little section on shoe polish..
Got 9 Minutes?
Save your shoes.
Cobble together a footwear-care kit with the help of Tony Pecorella, owner of Modern Leather Goods Repair Shop in New York City. He recommends:
BLACK AND BROWN POLISH - Look for pro polish from leather experts like Meltonian and Angelus.
COLORED POLISH - Check for a color match by dabbing on the inside of the heel. For pastels, see a pro.
CLEAR NEUTRAL POLISH - It protects leather and adds sheen.
CHEESECLOTH - To apply polish
BUFFER BRUSH - For a glossy finish.
What do you guys think about this advice? And where is a good place to buy shoe care supplies, other than the supermarket? I am namely looking for clear polish right now.
