Why not drop the retailer a note and work out something ? yeossal has return policy if there is where you bought yours

Size up or not depends on the lasts. Only for soft square, hawkbill & similar fitting lasts. Not for the chassis 1 & 2 or round lasts I feel.

You same size as me. Which last does the shoe you got come in?

AM's own webpage claims all the lasts should be same size, but I think still depends on individual lah..

unfortunately, you really need to size half up for a.mecceriallo. i am able to put it on easy, but alas it’s too narrow and uncomfotable at the arch of my feet. looking to get it return to yeossal.

Renomat removed shoe dye

I used Renomat to remove some dark brown saphir cream when I failed with a antiquing on my Corno Blu Lycra that was nicely done up with a mirror shine. Ended up with a patch of darken colour patch on the toe cap and it seems some of the original dye removed. Probably rubbed a bit too much. Was under the impression that good leather dye will not be removed.

Now won't hold any Saphir cream or wax any more no matter hold many coats I apply. Tried to use Saphir dark brown cream to cover whole toe caps but only part of the toe caps can hold the dark cream colour. I ordered some Saphir TEINTURE FRANCAISE brown colour dye to DIY fix but not sure now to proceed or seek professional help.

What's your advise?

Renomat is very powerful. You have to use it sparingly. Which is the patch that showed up after you used Renomat?

Which is the area that that holds the dark colour cream?

Did you just do this? Was it done consecutively?

Looks like same as my Edetal.

Instead of using cloth to polish, i use my hand to apply wax(very thick layer) and use brush to brush until it melt into the pores. Then I leave it overnight to let me dry.

After that I just polish like normal.

The reason why I never use cloth to polish wax is wax, cause I felt that I am removing the polish rather than building it up
