Great, thanks - just wanted to make sure I wouldn't make them lighter than I wanted.

Fair enough - I wouldn't be able to tell the difference from those photos, since I've never owned any suede shoes before. I can do most types of normal leather, but suede vs nubuck? Best to trust y'all with that assessment.

ALWAYS apply polish slightly lighter than the shoes (or EXACTLY the same shade). Cream polish WILL darken, however

I had this model Invertere in the late '60s. Not particularly warm. Wears well, though. Ask for measurements on this item. An Invertere 40 is usually the equivalent of a 42.

Opulence represented in a coat

If you missed the boat on the duo Charvets for $50 here's another chance, but you're going to have to fight for it!
