the rest of my shoes and boots are EG, JL’s or Berluti. Recently I have been interested in Shell Cordovan and wanted to buy a pair, as I have never had any shoes in Shell Cordovan. Worn them all evening yesterday and all day today and I am very impressed with the comfort of the leather and the pair boots it self. Anyone had any experience with Crockett and Jones Shell cordovan shoes before, anything special I need to do to look after them?

I have the Finsbury in shell (brown like yours). I've never done anything more for them than to occasionally (maybe once a year) give them a polish with tan wax. Other than that just brush vigorously.

The C&J Skye 2 has got to be one of the finest boots ever made.
