Great product would recommend
It works like magic
Absolutely amazing
I absolutely love the macadamia saphir products for my horsehide stuff! Bootblack delivered it quickly and am very happy.
Great, would buy again
Good
Did excellent work on bringing up a high gloss shine on my boots.
I purchased my second colour from boot black for my daughter’s school shoes. Brilliant! And the application brush is small enough for her little hands to do it herself. I remember my dad cleaning my shoes before going on the school bus for all my years of schooling. I hope to do the same for my kids.
It is a great product and delivers amazing results but even more important than that was the service I received from the team. Highly recommend both the product and the guys.
Vernis Rife Patent Leather Cleaner 100ml
Makes putting on shoes such a pleasure! Especially in Japan, where removing and putting on shoes happens multiple times a day. Love how compact these gorgeously crafted shoe horns are (they fit into my small, zippered leather pouch bought specially for it) and how I no longer have to use the communal shoe horn provided at their many temples! The horn makes it so indulgent, and the backs of my shoes are now preserved so much better.
There's no better brand of shoe care than Saphir, and this is a fine example. Easy to use, a little goes a long way! Postage from Bootblack was immediate, and the product arrived in 2 days.
Did a great job lifting some 'antique' gloves that had been in storage for decades. Good on lightweight leather shoes also.
Pommadier 75ml
Gifted a pair of RM Macquaries from the 90’s that were steeped in 20 years of Rum and Coke spills. Great build quality but the leather was in real trouble, was scalely and flaked off on contact.
Used fine sandpaper to take them back to smooth leather, applied Havana 35 Renovating crème (3x and sanded back) and then Havana 35 Teinture, the Pommadier and conditioner, and then polished with the Bootblack Brush & Cloth set.
They have come up just ridiculously shiny and mirror finished whereas RM’s are now quite matt. So excellent if you want to see your reflection when you look down, but not if you want something a little more subdued and subtle.
Have another pair of hand-me-downs RM’s coming soon that were used as stockman riding boots for years, and years. Whatever went on the horse livery went on the boots, so the next project should be interesting. Might investigate the patina look of the higher end RM’s and see if I can replicate the burnished look. Perhaps Bootblack can assist with the next project??, but they are always my first stop for shoe and leather products.
