The caps of my black leather lace-ups have small, spiderweb cracks. I don't think it's the leather that's actually cracking as the shoes are good quality, and fairly new. Instead, I think it's from too much polish. If I accidently scuff my shoe, or push on it, the cracking spreads out from the point that pressure was applied.
I don't polish my own shoes, as a man in my office tower comes around, and for $20 a month, will shine the shoes 4 times a week. But, that means that the polish is just continually piled on.
I guess my next step is to strip the polish off the shoe and start over.
Has anyone else experienced this? Have I diagnosed the problem correctly?
