Time again, people have ruined their brand new shoes by being overzealous with their shoe care regimen when it was not necessary to even start with it.
Here I touch on the misconceptions and reasons why one does not need to immediately start conditioning their brand new shoes straight out of the box.

Same approach for suede (reversed leather} high-end footwear? If so, I am guilty of spraying my suede shoes with a protective spray (e.g. Tarrago Nana Protector).
hey Leo, replied on facebook 🙂
pls advise putting mink oil on the leather of the RTW new shoes? will this damaged the leather???
damage the leather no, but it could ruin the finish depending on the type of leather/finishing treatment
Thanks, Justin. Good advice.
My pleasure Mark and thank you!
This is the second rant I’ve seen from you on this subject. Both are great. This one is more sophisticated and informative and should be read by anyone spending more than a couple of hundred bucks on GY welted or Blake stitched shoes. But your other one is good also. Maybe you should call them part one and two so your readers will know to read both.✌️Thank you.
Thanks Peter. I do appreciate your support and comment
Justin you are such a great resource thank you for all you do and for being real
Thank you for your kind words Keith, I do appreciate them as I often get harsh feedback when making rants for those that take my words personally. Glad to know that some appreciate the direct approach and do not take offense. Thank you for saying so
