A leather care kit for smooth-leather shoes holds everything for the classic routine: shoe cream, brushes for applying and polishing, and a polishing cloth. So you can clean, nourish and polish business and dress shoes with one matched set.
The leather care kit for smooth-leather shoes
Smooth leather is worked with the grain side out, giving the smooth surface of classic business and dress shoes. Its care always follows the same three steps: clean, nourish with shoe cream, polish. A care kit bundles exactly the parts that belong together, so you do not have to assemble them one by one.
What a leather care kit contains
Shoe cream is the basis: it soaks into the leather, nourishes it and refreshes the colour, and because it already contains wax it gives shine and some protection at the same time. Add a brush for cleaning, an application brush, a polishing brush and a cloth. Larger kits include several cream colours and further accessories. The exact contents are listed on each product page, for example the 17-piece, 12-piece or 8-piece kit.
Which kit size is right?
For starting out or for travel, a small 3-piece kit is enough. If you care for one or two pairs regularly, an 8- or 12-piece kit is a solid choice. The 17-piece kit is the complete solution with several colours, ideal for several pairs or as a gift.
Full kit or just the brushes?
A full kit holds cream and brushes. If you already have cream and only need the right brushes, you will find brush sets and individual shoe brushes in their own category, and the matching shoe cream and wax too. For suede and velour, a suede care kit is the right choice.
