I think everyone should have a pair or two of shell shoes. Mostly for casual or sport coat fits.
As for the polishing - yes I do have a problem with shoes that don't require my love and attention (suede) as I do enjoy the hobby of polishing.
Fortunately shell shoes actually require more care than one might think if you wish to have them looking fabulous. Building up the finish/shine can actually take a lot of brushing and time if you wish to have them looking really great. Now once they are up to speed they are more carefree.
Gdot The Finsbury looks great! I don't have any shell in my collection....might need to be addressed? I like polishing my shoes too much!
