If you’re a little late, don’t worry. I’m sure there will be a flurry of B/S/T posts once these start showing up at our homes. I’m definitely taking a flier on sizing, so I picked a couple of styles that were either returnable or that i shouldn’t have a lot of trouble selling (Black/Black and Grey kangaroo w/ white sole)

Is it still possible to get the deal? I wasn't able to get to it yesterday

I now it is very soon but I need to buy these now that someone can bring the, to me.
Does the Saphir Renovateur solvents afect the anticato? Is it safe to use on the sneakers or should we use other product?
Which of the grey saphir creams do you think is the best match for anticato grey?

Thx

Honestly not an expert but have asked @OrlandoMo but it sounds like @EgoCamisas knows what he is talking about.

Cool thx. I was afraid that the Renovateur may affect the anticato with the solvents, so I preferred to ask rather than regret later

I've read the same cautions on Renovateur with crust leather, but don't have experience to confirm

Meant to add that out of caution I won't be touching my anticato with Renovateur but will try Sapphire's gentler universal creme

I don’t know that product. That is the name? What is it’s purpose?

In my case, I will do it but in some non-so-visible part of the leather. If the results are good, which I expect, I will apply it. As well as applying my médaille d'or crème pommadier in tan (I picked anticato sienna, which is more similar to tan than the anticato tan lol) and eventually also pâte de luxe in tan. Depending on how it reacts, why shouldn't I increase the patina with the whole treatment?

Cheers

It's actual name is a little more french 'Creme Universelle'. Similar to Renovateur but gentler and no mink oil.

Gonna check it out. Thx

BTW it's presidents day in the US. I suspect it might be beneficial to leave it open for one more day as a result. Many of us are traveling and don't have time this weekend to finalize.

I am happy to enable Naked for anyone who missed out so they can complete the checkout at the cost price. Unfortunately, there is a very good reason why we can't publicly extend at the moment... If it all goes according to plan, I will share of course. Please send me a direct message or whatsapp with your email and I'll take care of it.
