Shoe Damage Report & Shoe P0rn Central - Part II

[SpooPoker]



New models from Marc Guyot, maybe a bit garish, but perfect for spring
If somebody happens to be in Geneva, Switzerland today, I received this email from Brogue.ch . I might go today, they have sometimes Corthay on sale

I love all of these. And updates please, if you go.

hand welted? .. lasted?  cost less than Carmina ...   what's the catch?

+1

Regarding Meermin, I've read the same. Although, I believe the shell pair I currently have on MTO order is hand lasted, but machine welted.

which one do you prefer?

I don't know. Should I have a preference? (my shoe knowledge is close to non existent, so I'm happy to learn.)

For quality, machine lasted and hand welted would be preferred. Machine welted is always (or nearly always) going to be GY.

As many knows already i'm a shoe amateur so sorry for my silly question now (spare with me)

Can I use the same brush that I used for black shoes on let's say on some brown shoes? Or do I need to buy another brush for the brown shoes? And is there a good guide here on the forum or a website were I can read about how to polish your shoes in the best way ?

Thanks and have a great easter-holiday gentlemens!

I'd buy another brush if you use polish on them......

Ok, well I do by saphir shoe creams.

Ok, well I do by saphir shoe creams.

If you use creams I would definitely use two different brushes. I use a different brush for every shade of cream or wax, and a separate brush for buffing without waxes or creams.
