So very true...well said.
What a surprise
I've been looking for something as well. I currently store all my shoe care items in a shoe box (RMW boot box is just big enough). I've been considering a vintage Griffin shoeshine box, regularly available at ebay but I don't think it's large enough to hold all my stuff.

Another option is a old wooden crate. I see them all the time at flea markets and also available on ebay. I always thought the vintage wooden 'explosives crates' looked cool. I like that they are built w/dovetailed corners and tongue and groove construction. However, I want something with a lid and many of these don't have a cover.

I dare you to tell your friends how much that lot cost. Actually, forget that... if you're into this kind of thing, then you have no friends

Can anyone recommend a good cleaning kit / trunk?
I found an old antique doctor's bag that I keep all of my supplies in. Makes a nice decoration and it is totally functional.
Yep, I put Obaneuf's Leather Oil on it when I bought it too.
