The point if using crust leather is that they will develop fast patina from loss spray paints and antiquing creams. Which means it would be very hard to maintain the existing color unless you find the right blends/mixes of creams.
That being said, renovator takes off more pigments than Lexol from my experience. So I would (and I do) uses light colored creams (light brown) with renovator.
All new shoes need is just waxing the welt threads or at most wax the whole shoes and scuff the soles.
Or just follow Rons advise above. He's an expert.
Chogall,
What do you recommend for the crust leather shoes from Edward Green? I do not care about the mirror shine or changing the color of the leather. I would like to nourish and maintain the existent color whatever came from the factory.
Thank you in advance.
