Loake Durham in chestnut, today at the office.

should i wash my black leather shoe???

what for?

Thread title "black leather shoe" merged..

Wash leather shoe??? Holy cow!!! This is gotta see!

did you guys check it out on Tang's Sales.. a lot of leather shoe on sales.. somes up to 70%..

I've seen those before. I haven't found anything compelling there. (They're all Italian.)

Italian means, they are fancy and artsy and not comfortable. hahaha.

yes, Italian shoes look more trendy, but about the comfortable, i think is price matter..
i found the Italian shoes that selling in Malaysia, the mark up is very high and when the sales come will offer up to 50%.. and always don't know what brand is it (i try to check on the internet that all the Italian Shoes that i bought, satu pun tak kena.. )

Sweet!!

Just curious, with what colour pants do you wear brown shoes with? I see you're wearing white in that picture, any other colour pants that matches well with brown shoes? The only other I can think of would be light grey.

Thanks

I think shoes should be some shade of brown. Anything from tan to oxblood is preferable to black. Leather looses all it's organic charm when dyed black.

The pic is overexposed because of the dark carpet. The trousers are cream.

I think brown shoes work with everything except black or charcoal. Here you see the great Giugiaro (designer of the first VW Golf, the Fiat Punto, and the Nikon F3) wearing a darkish suit with brown shoes to great effect.

Hey Sifus! I have a few leather shoes and i take good care of them but i do not know which product should i use i was about to polish my hugo boss oxford shoes today and this question came to my mind after looking through all the products i have for shoes



Heres the picture!

from left to right

Tarrago- Protects against liquid - for all kind of leather

PALC - Self Shining shoe cream for Dark Brown Shoes

Kiwi - Colour Shine Brown Instand Polish

Minit - Cleans, protects and cares in an instant

Aldo - Instant Gloss

Woly - Fashion Leather Cream for Black Shoes

After polishing a shoe do you remove the old polish and polish it all over again?

Or do you polish over the the previous polishes?

Thank you very much!

I suck in taking good cares for me shoes but i love them =)

ADVICE NEEDED ~.~ what kind of leather shoes suit slim cut pants? picture..? i am kinda skinny so most of my pants are slim cut... and is it ok if i wear smart casual (jeans) with leather shoes or its strange?

Go for Oxfords! But i think only some people can pull it off! Not me I'm too short! haha oh well.. But Oxfords is a must for everyone then i think monk strap!

pls throw away all of them except maybe the woly. u can use the woly as a form of cream.

then, if u don't want to go to PLal for saphir, i suggest u buy urself some kiwi waxes to top off the cream. none of the wipe on super shine nonsense.

That's exactly what I'd say too. Keep woly, throw everything else away. Also, buy a horsehair brush for each wax colour.

depends on what kind of leather shoes you're looking for, loafers can be leather as well.. slim cut pants go well with narrow shoes..

yes dress shoes are fine with jeans.. maybe you'd wanna go for oxfords or wing-tips, or loafers which are more casual.. dark brown is pretty versitile..



oxfords are fine for short ppl, just go for narrower tips and ones which don't look too heavy for your feet..

Real men shoes are made of leather.
