On the request of @Benz3ne I thought I'd take a couple of before and after photos of my shoes and my first impressions of the Saphir shoes polish and wax.
I have very limited experience and knowledge of shoe polishing etc. I've usually used whatever has been in the cupboard, which is usually Kiwi polish.
I've got a couple of nice pairs of Grensons so I thought I best start looking after them. After a couple of evenings watching video's on YouTube (sad but true), Saphir kept popping up.
I'm not going to go into great detail about the products, the video below can do a much better job.
So what did I think of they products? Well for starters I liked the smell a lot more than other shoe polishes I've tried. It had a more natural smell which was quite strong.
Both the cream and wax were easy to use and absorb into the leather.
Just from a brief look, it darkened the leather and gave it a natural shin.
I bought the neutral polish and wax so I wasn't adding any pigment to the leather.
Not sure if you can see any difference as my photography skills aren't the greatest.
