Thank you sir; the funny thing is, the wax sitting on top was making them both look super shiny and the wrong color (it was actually a lot of wax). AE Polished Cobbler in its factory state is not quite that shiny.Those look great! They were a little long for me and I don't think I wore them more than twice since thrifting them, so I'm happy they found a new home with someone who really likes saddle Sheltons.
My saddle soaping brush turned brown-burgundy, which makes me think a long-previous owner wasn’t quite sure what polish to use and was piling on stuff for years. That Chestnut color is something, that if you’re trying to apply polish, would be very hard to match. Good thing it’s PC, so you don’t really have to do anything.
Anyway, neat vintage shoes, in good shape, at a good price.
