its smooth brown leather shoe, where can find those polishers eh?

Carmina first.

Saint Crispin a bit overbudget since I commissioned a new pair of suit recently

Wow, congratulations! Jeremy Tok?

Sadly not this time. Was in a little rush and have to get it somewhere else due to the urgency of the last min thingy.

He's definitely next in my list!

Maybe if get more dudes can do MTO, shirt, pants, suit....

How was your MD Nicole Nerini? I bought one too but received much later than you. This is my first leather sole dress shoes. Have you encountered runny dye from the sole? And the main body itself would discolor with a few water drops.
Guess should have gotten a rubber sole dress shoes first.

Where can I get those black shoe creme and Saphir Edge?

WJ and Co in Bangsar have the creme. Not sure about the edge dressing. I get all of mine online. Mostly eBay. Though I just noticed there is an official retailer in Indo. Found them on IG.

thank you, but that creme, what kind of shop should i look for it? Leather shop, shoe shop or boutique? Because i lives outside KL.

If you don't mind getting a brand other than Saphir, you can try Clarks, Larrie/Camel Active, Hush Puppies. They carry their own brand cremes. Parksons also usually have some in their men's shoes section.

But if you are using quality shoes, I advocate going for quality shoe care products as well. Just get Saphir online. Unless your shoe care regimen is every single week, the bottles of Saphir will last you a very long time. A pea-sized blob of creme should be just about enough to do a pair of shoes.

Dang...the edge dressing is dirt cheap on Taobao:

Anyone can point me to the right direction on where I can get resoling done?

Well I needn't have worried. Quite heavy rain this morning. Got my socks wet at the ankles from water splashing above the topline, but my toes were dry!

So all good.

Anybody got experience with starwax?

The wax type or liquid bottle type is better?

Hi all! I've just recently discovered this thread and I've found quite a lot of useful information since I've started to take a bit more notice of my shoes and boy have I been neglecting them!

I've been needing some advice on some of my existing shoes and perhaps some could advice me in the direction. I've had a pair of Hush puppies, really well built one's. I've been told they are goodyear welted (stitching is hidden under the rubber outsole). But the upper leather is coming apart! Is there anything i can do to save them? I've been applying shoe polish, on a weekly basis but it doesn't seem to stop the cracks from spreading!

Not much you can do once the leather cracks. Time for a new pair.. and do invest in some shoetrees as well.

You're probably right, thanks for the confirmation. I've been just told the same by a professional cobbler. I'll take note on the shoe tree tip, I plan to buy a few for my other existing shoes and I've been looking at a few places including Lazada and https://shoetreeproject.com/sg/shop/shoe-trees/ , such a huge price difference. Now I'll have to do a little bit more research on these. Unless there are recommendations on what I should be looking for at an entry level?

Jeremy Tok was waxing lyrical (pardon the pun) about starwax in this very thread a few years back. I bought some, didn't like it. Based on what I own and have used, Saphir>Kiwi>Starwax.

Never tried liquid starwax...don't think I've even seen it before.

ah.. thanks for your input..

Now I saw they have liquid type...
