I noticed he had a pair of CG leather shoes made by church's which are well maintained and are old, and they look good. How can i care for my CG church's in the same way to keep them alive longer?

Yeah this is how I would deal with real leather shoes. Of course my shoe process is also highly, highly sound edited too.
But Im not sure how to treat CG leather, aside from not getting it. I cant find any advice from Ron Rider, who I thought might be able to help.

Any help is much appreicated

No special care was taken with my shoes other than normal polishing. Moreover, I rarely polish or care for my own shoes...I normally just do the old fashioned thing and have them polished at a shoe shine stand. I realize shoe shine stands are all but gone in most America, but it's still something that I do.
I am sorry if that's not terribly helpful.

So you never bring your shoes to anyone in Boston to have them cleaned or conditioned?
