Requested for snuff suede colours, and he sourced out some for me quickly. Pretty damn fast response too.

After polishing to a high shine or mirror finish using paste wax, do you guys still use leather renovateur or shoe cream during regular shoe maintenance? Will it destroy the shine?

Or it will be just paste wax or brush only all the way until it starts to crack, then strip and restart the process (condition, cream, polish)?

I wanted the CXL Brown (1st choice) or Oiled Latigo (2nd choice), but both out of stock. Do not want a no.8 or burgundy as I already have one.

So just try my first ever rough out boots for this MTO.

Hope your pair comes good!
(By the way how much is yours?)

Reno should only be used sparingly. Maybe once or twice a year. Reno strips some of the wax, but not all. If the leather feels dry then you can condition more often. Cream can also work.
