Which shoe design is it? Why not you contact Betty about it? She's quite prompt in replying emails. Alternatively, you can try skoaktiebolaget or gentlemans footwear. They might have something from Carmina you might like.

Does anyone know of heel liners that are as least 5mm thick? Or can anyone suggest remedy for a pair of oversized loafers, less insoles :) Thanks!

Hi guys, is it expensive to purchase horse hair brush for $17?

I bought it cheaper off taobao, but this is cheap enough.
But would you trust a $17 brush on a $800 shoe?

Everything's relative but incremental utility diminishes with each incremental dollar spent.

So....

It's just a brush. I hand polish, no brushes and it works.

Would you trust my hand on a 2k pair of shoes? I would. It's not a matter of price, it's a matter of value.

bro gpgt your hand-polished shoes! I cannot imagine entirely hand polishing w/o brush.. respect.

Anyway I use kiwi brushes most of my life and they worked well for me and recently only bought hush puppies horse-hair brush ($7.90) at recom of some bros here and yes I can appreciate the immediate difference in softness of the bristles, but seriously still don't see kiwi brush as ruining my shoes either.

$17 is quite "expensive" to me TBH....
