Show us your new shoes
Discussion
Some knowledgable folk on here, I'm pretty good when it comes to caring for leather leather footwear but I'm still a bit hit and miss when it comes to suede. With my suede collection growing some over the last weeks, what's the best way and products people use to care for them?
Also, does anyone use any products for inside shoes or boots to protect or nourish linings?

Shoes look nice enough, although the laces done like that don't help. As to your question, nothing makes my heart sink as much as being asked to guess something I have no way of ever being able to intelligently guess. My wife does it, and now you've done it. I have no fking idea. Just fking tell us FFS.

They were handmade in Hoi An in Vietnam. I chose the design and materials, the guy drew around my feet and I picked them up 24 hours later.
The cost, 900 000 VND or $40 or about £28. Bargain.

Sorry chaps, I'll sort the laces and I'll try and find a better picture that shows the soles.

That is a proper bargain, good work. They were handmade in Hoi An in Vietnam. I chose the design and materials, the guy drew around my feet and I picked them up 24 hours later.

I had some done the same way in Cyprus in 1992 when I was living out there. They were a really good fit, and well made, but I suspect I paid more than you did.
