Oh great masters of shoe care, If you could help me...
Any ideas how can I clear out the creasings and make the finish even somehow on these shoes? I have these for quite a long time and those black creasings drive me crazy.

totally agree! there would be no problem to use it but i think with lexol u ll be ok!!I would personally not waste so much reno on a jacket. I would advise you to try out Lexol Conditioner.
I've read through much of this, but it's all quite a lot to take in. This is my first time here, so thanks in advance for being gentle.
I'm getting my first pair of shoes worth caring for, the Wolverine 1000 Mile Boot in Brown. I'm curious what is important for my shoe care "starter kit" to best care for these boots (and provide the foundation for more purchases as I get more adventurous). Based on what I've read, I'm thinking a good place to start might be:
AE Horsehair Dauber
AE Horsehair Shine Brush
AE Cotton Flannel Polishing Cloth x2
AE Conditioner/Cleaner
AE Combination Cedar Shoe Trees
Kiwi Brown Paste Polish
Atsko Sno-Seal Wax
Lexol Leather Cleaner
Given that I'm in NYC and don't have a wide variety in my collection, the boots would get heavy use. My understanding is that I should wipe them down with a barely moist cloth and give a quick dry brush whenever I get home, and maybe once every couple of weeks, condition, shine, and use the sno-seal to protect the sole and sole stitching. Then every 2-3 months, use the Lexol to remove all of the wax buildup and rejuvenate the leather. Did I get that right?
What's your take on this "starter kit"? Is any kind of waterproofing spray useful or necessary?
