Question: what's the best way to deal with scuffs? Is there a product to cover them, or what do I do?

I don't wear jeans. I wear 'em to work with dress slacks.But then I'd need to get a new pair of jeans!
I like to use shoe cream and waxes to cover them. If they are deep, you may be to wet sand them with conditioner and high grit sandpaper. Another option would be to use Saphir's Renovating Cream and then add cream polish.Question: what's the best way to deal with scuffs? Is there a product to cover them, or what do I do?
What do you fellas do about the flaking off of a shoes finish? I bought these Bostonian wholecut Oxfords, and the finish was a bit flaky. I scrubbed them with saddle soap, and gave them a few doses of Bick 4 before two coats of cream polish. When I took the shoe trees out to lace them up, the shoes flexed and the finish cracked again and, while not as bad as they were originally, they were not satisfactory. Any hope for these?

Today's haul. Florsheim 92611 Imperial, AE Lexington, and Tony Lama in what looks like sharkskin. Boots aren't my thing, but for $14.99, I figure I can find them a good home

Elephant?! That's a thing? If so, I'd better not tell my wife. She loves elephants.Pretty sure those boots are elephant not Sharkskin.

Too bad we're not the same size.I managed to find a NOS pair of Florsheim LWB (in my odd size). They are 93602 — which I already have. But, I couldn’t pass up new old stock.
When they arrive this week I am going to have the serious dilemma whether to wear them or keep them NOS.
For today, it isn’t Wednesday. But, I still decided to wear my Alden Shell LWB. I bought some Cordovan cream the other day. I decided to wear these another time before I polish them a little.
