Lordgrover those are just horrible shoes.
Why don’t we all agree to delete the quotes and you throw them out and we’ll all pretend this never happened.
Do you still like music and beautiful women and singing? Can you still smile or get an erection?
Those shoes are so sad, they symbolise the slow ebbing of your human spirit. It’s like watching an old ship rust away or a once great building fall into disrepair and become a squat for druggies and rank old dirty prostitutes.
They are utterly utterly miserable.

Genuinely beautiful summary.

I've cleaned my wife's Dubarry boots and used the Dubarry leather cream. But is has left white residue in the creases and they look rubbish. I have previously used a soft brush to get it out, but it polishes them - which is not the original appearance.
Any ideas chaps please?
Okay, the answer, if anyone finds themselves in a similar position, is a hairdryer. I heated the areas with white residue and it melted like the snow (presumably absorbed).Any ideas chaps please?

I've bought and sent back so many pairs of shoes recently trying to get a dainite soled daily wearer at a palatable price point, thankfully finally something I like and that fits - Berwick 1707 derby wingtip scotch grain:
Bought from AFPOS, 10% off offer made them £148, including a free Saphir Medaille D'Or in an appropriate colour and lasted cedar shoe trees
Quite nice with the more casual chinos and button down look I've been adopting in the office recently. In my view these are a bargain, even at full price (£165), they seem much better made than the few pairs of Loake 1808's that have passed through my hands (briefly) recently

I'm looking for a pair of zipped boots in brown. Preferably pointier (or chisel toed) than most on here, no, or minimal broguing and with a bit of 'style'. By which I mean toward the Jeffery West end rather than the Jacob Rees Mogg end.
JW don't have anything I fancy. Jo Ghost close but no cigar. Any others I should be looking for?
