Steps

White Leather and Red Suede Carlos Santos Oxford Saddle Shoes with dirty toes

The shoes weren't filthy. But they had some grime embedded in the grain of the toes, which you can see. Plus, with white leather, it shoes up much more prevalantly.

A little dab of white cream polish. Grime on the toes of the leather shoes.

Take a small dab of polish on a soft cloth, and apply it in a swirling motion, to press it into the grain of the leather, and pick up the excess dirt and grime.

After applying the cream polish, take a short horsehair brush, and brush briskly across the surface, to ensure the polish gets properly absorbed within the grain.

Use a horsehair brush to brush briskly across the surface of the leather, and ensure it gets spread evenly.

After briskly brushing, take a clean cloth, and rub it across the surface of the leather, to pick up any excess cream.

Now that the surface is clean and dry, use Neutral/Clear High Shine Paste/Wax to protect and shine the toe.

High Shine Paste Wax for Mirror Shines to be used on the Carlos Santos White Leather Saddle Shoes

Apply the High Shine using fingertips, in alternating vertical and horizontal stripes. This allows the wax to get embedded in the grain, and form a protective and hard surface layer. This hard surface layer offers clear protection and extra shine.
