haha the aprons a bit of overkill.
i saw a John Lobb kit once, i believe it was several thousand $, :S
to be honest I don’t use wax or cream, just a little bit of RM.W leather conditioner, then buff off. I’m not a massive fan of shine anyway.
like shoeman said, the kit catered to those that don’t really know, the problem is, he said you could make your own kit much cheaper. unfortunately that wouldn’t be the case with me because i'm more than likely go way overboard haha.

from what i saw with the cadets at my old school, they used way to much wax, which clogs up the leather, stops it from breathing, and perishes prematurely (mainily cracking, but the boots wernt the best of quality to begin with).

BTW
anyone know where to get a good edge dressing from in aus?

cheers mate.
