Re: What shoe polish do you use?
I normally buy the manufacturer's wax polish with a pair of shoes. In practice, for black shoes, I also use Church's shoe cream too.
Contrary to lies of FNB and Woofboxer, I (and most of the other "Buff Bastards") have been banned from posting on this forum. There are only a few posters left so don't waste your time on here. This forum is dead and nobody cares.

Allen-Edmonds Premium Shoe Polish--the stuff that comes in a tube. I believe it is the same as Colomil (sp?) and Nordstrom's Synovia.

Meltonian shoe cream. I must admit, I am very lazy about maintaining my shoes these days.

G&G (Saphir I believe) and Kiwi renovating polish when required - normally about once a year.

Meltonian; really a cream, not a polish-but every color imaginable.

Re: What shoe polish do you use?
I would use any polish in an appropriate colour even Parade Gloss for black shoes though some claim it damages shoes. Punch is a cheap brand. I have not seen Cherry Blossom for many a year.
I will admit buying Saphir after seeing it mentioned in forums. It smells nice.

Re: What shoe polish do you use?
I use Parade Gloss for black and Meltonian for everything else. I occasionally use a neutral wax if I think it needs to be more waterproof. I am not sure if the cream waterproofs as well as the wax cake so I just do it to be safe.

Re: What shoe polish do you use?
Burgol, Kiwi, Saphir
Creams mostly Saphir (or rebranded Saphir), wax mostly Burgol with a bit of Kiwi or Saphir thrown in (depending on colour or what I can get around here)...
...who makes the 'Alden' labeled creams? I like those...

Safir cream and polish.
I need to find the right shade of orange to keep the soles of my Santoni FAMs in fine trim. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Re: What shoe polish do you use?
I have a Tricker's shoe valet case to which I have added some extra polish from Carr & Day & Martin.

Also when I buy new Church's shoes the shop will throw in a suitable Church's polish.
