Hi Guy,

Grabbed these great vintage Bostonian shell cordovan shoes to restore, but it looks like they were a little rougher than I first thought. My question is, does anyone think these are salvageable and if so what the process would be? Thanks for the input!

Thanks for the advice! What does VSC stand for? I have some Saphir Renovateur if that would work instead?

Venetian shoe cream is recommended by Horween. . Bick 4 is also an excellent conditioner.

  • Cuffed (more than 1.5 inches)

  • No preference, as long as the proportions work
