>implying you know what you're talking about

Good thing you namefag. Now I can disregard everything you say

>>8651575
Do you mean general shoe polishing/care or just specifically shining?

Anyway you cant go wrong with a good old fashioned military spit shine

As far as products go I highly recommend Saphir, especially their renovateur.

general shoe polishing/care

You will need:
>Horse Hair Applicator Brush
>Horse Hair Polishing Brush
>Polishing cloth or 100% cotton cloth/t-shirt
>Wax
>mink oil renovator

I recommend Saphir for your wax and mink oil renovator

>>8651755
Wax can be interchanged with other products depending on your preferences/needs

it'll basically be for plain black shoes like this

Any leather shoe can be polished, but remember not to layer it too much on the parts that flex, or else your polish will crack and flake off. Remember to use conditioner and to strip the shoe every once in a while. Having mirror-like finishes on your shoes says a lot. I consider shoes to be the most important part of an outfit. No homo.

If you go for a mirror shine expect to be spending time every day touching them up. Also if you get caught in a spot of rain you will have to start over.

LOVE those shoes, just curious, does anyone know what sole the patrik ervell models use?

Looks like they have their resoles and put on some chunkier leather

Solid advice here.

Also I agree with the shoes being the most important part of a fit which is why I always make sure mine are nice and polished.
