Has anyone had luck using polish/ cream to darken walnut AEs? I am debating trying this, taking them to a cobbler or selling my shoes
I am worried the color really won't take in the leather and creases would still show an uneven color.
Burgundy Cordovan Leeds in a couple of different lightings. These are so versatile, love them dressed up a bit and love them casually. Awesome shoe and highly recommended for anyone looking for a PTB. Very happy to have pulled the trigger during the seconds sale.

Just curious . . . why do you want to darken them?

Oh, OK. Lots of walnut fans on this thread (myself included) but your explanation does clarify things.
Someone please correct me if I am wrong, but I believe bourbon is really nothing more than walnut plus black. Ergo, if you use black polish on walnut, the result should be bourbon-like.
Awesome with the selvedge. Where are the jeans from?
Unbranded 201 I picked up on sale from Urban Outfitters, on my second pair after blowing out the first around the one year mark.
I have had Roy denim, Samurai, Kicking Mule, PBJ and a handful of other brands of selvedge and the Unbranded are one of my favs. I would only put the Roy and my Samurai 710s (easily first on that list) above them. They honestly cannot be beat at that price and fit me very well. I do want to try something from Gustin at some point, seems they might be similar but offer some interesting denim for the price points.

I've read that. I'm skeptical that the finishing is the same as just adding shoe polish
Walnut Carlyles are in. Sure enough, they have a flat welt and no wheeled edges. That's a bummer but in general they look very nice.
Hi, I am new to this thread. Are there a Allen Edmonds MTO thread? I am interested in buying a pair of light brown shell longwings with lighter welt and edge. Thanks in advance
