Shoe care in London

I know very little about shoe care but it seems like there's a dearth of options in Singapore. Thus, I'm hoping to pick up some stuff when I'm in London.

Does anybody have any recommendations about what I should get and where I can get them? I already have cedar trees and polish, but am pretty much clueless about the rest.

It'd be nice if you could suggest somewhere relatively inexpensive as well. I know inexpensive is a more or less subjective term, but let's try not to go anywhere near £100.

Thanks!

Herring shoes has a shoe care valet set for £99.95 (VAT included - cheaper if you had it sent to S'pore as VAT dies not apply on overseas shipments) if you order from their website. pretty much has all the basics.

Tough to do quality on a budget in London. Better options online. Plenty of discussion on this in archived posts.
