QUOTE(Ronin_Amin @ Dec 2 2020, 02:01 PM) Just wondering what are the community thoughts on getting leather shoes from bundle stores/used? I started with a pair of Barker that I bought in 2013 at Barker Jermyn Street. Since that i have a few pairs from various shoemaker. recently around last year I started to explore our bundle and yes surprisingly you can find GOOD STUFF there. I mean a proper shoemaker pair. I have been buying the few good ones and restore the upper myself. Yes we kinda lack of proper shoe repair place and till now i don't know where to go if i need a sole to be change. Good upper is still manageable and can be restore as good as new pair.

QUOTE(EpsilonStar @ Jan 20 2021, 10:46 AM) guys have a question regarding shoe maintenance. If I have already wax and mirror shine nicely the shoe, what would be the maintenance steps? Do i give the whole shoe a good brush(this will remove the mirror shine right?), then just repeat renovateur, waxing, polish and mirror shine again? Would it accumulate too much wax at the mirror shine area? How often to do this? Personally i just leave it be. Until i think it need to be redone. But that's me. I will do mirror shine and wear it until the shine started to fade and uneven. Then I will reworked them.

QUOTE(niakulah @ Feb 11 2021, 05:08 PM) This faithful pair will complete their 7th year with me soon. [attachmentid=10786634] It spent a bit more than a year under a rubber topy before I went au naturel. Toe tip was switched to rubber. Heel toplift has been replaced 4 times. Laces have been replaced twice. [attachmentid=10786635] Welt is coming apart at the join. Slightly disappointed that there even is a join in this location. This is not a 360 degree welt construction, they could have easily used a single piece of welt from heel to heel. But...cost cutting. [attachmentid=10786636] [attachmentid=10786637] A few years back Mr Minit told me they can do a Goodyear welt sole replacement and that they will replace the welt as part of the process. Soon I will have to see how good a job they can actually do. Which mister minit outlet that can do that gyw sole replacement job? I would like to get mine done soon.
