Did a little rubbing with a soft cloth (pic 1), then used a little wax polish and brushed off (pic 2)
I think with more brushing tomorrow I can get it even better, but for me, its fine as it is.

With all the talk about color 8 I thought you gentlemen would like to see some pictures on the different shades. We love our #8 at Unipair.

Just figured out what is meant by the phrase 'shoe Appreciation'. Amazing collection and pic's.

Wow. Amazing. Is there any more info on that #8 plain toe boot that you just posted? I wasn't able to find anything on your website about it.

unipair's post shows why if you had to choose one or the other, color 8 with dark edge probably beats out color 8 with antique edge...

Hard to believe that on October 2nd, today, it will be 85 degrees here in NYC, while at the end of October 2011 we got 5 inches of snow. I love mother nature.

Either way, it’s a good day for Color 8 WT boots on the Plaza

Hello everyone- thought I'd share my color 8 chukkas this morning. About a year and a half of heavy wear and fresh from their first full polish with wax.
