Working Shoe for Young Exec

[PetiaC]

Can I check with you guys something? I just got my first pair of working shoe from Pedro, and the sales person advised me to put on shoe care products to protect the exterior. Was wondering what kind of cloth can I use to put the shoe care products; normal cloths or special cloths? (eg. kiwi's shine cloth?).

Old cotton T-shirts, have more working surface and can use to shine also.

I see people use lint free cotton pad used for removing make up.

This is what I use personally for polishing, every local guy should have one. Don't wash it and let it saturate with the oils from the shoe care product.

250euro is raw shoe, 75euro additional for patina colors. Add in shipping etc, I think around SGD 500+ to SGD 600 approximately?

Yup 600 vs. 760 here.

Sorry, I rather take my business somewhere else. Not to mention that at the same price point, I find Edetal's finishing better.

Unfortunately, that's about a 30% difference in price. I've also enquired online and they don't ship to Singapore.

Just concerned about their shipping as there have been comments online about late arrivals and packages not received etc....

 

[urbanturban]

probably don't ship to Singapore to protect the business partners here.

Yes, that's understandable.

i_got_a_question_to_ask is your man to go to for Lexol conditioner, he'll have to ship in from Amazon so there's some lead time. I got mine from him, very helpful bro

hi guys

I got a brand new cole haan pinch air tassel in burgundy sz US7.5 Wide for sale.

I've just tried it on once at home, and found it too wide for me.

So I'm letting it go at S$250. Local department stores (Takashimaya, Tangs) are selling at about S$350+++.

Check out my thread in marketplace.

Opportunistic seller spotted. I bought two pairs from amazon last august and it provided free shipping. It was only about sgd$150 after conversion. Even if you ignore free amazon shipping and Ship via vpost, maximum cost is also $50.

No offense to ts, but $250 is nonsense

Help ppl pool order from amazon only. I never profit from transaction. Self collect unless you pay for my transport hor.
