Within my AE lineup, I have the chromexcel Strandmok and the Patton in grey (Kudu).

How do I care for these? From what I understand, I shouldn't use a polish, unlike calf leather.

Also, it wouldn't damage the leather on these kinds of shoes if I used them to shovel snow, would it?

For CXL - Venetian Shoe Cream or Saphir Greasy Leather.

Guys - I don't want to muck up this thread so would someone be so kind as to point me in the direction of the AE for sale thread (if it still exists).

Much appreciated.
Oh! I think this thread needs to be mucked.

Does Allen Edmonds make any specific product for CXL?
After my last purchase over a year ago of neutral wax, I gotta say that AE has inferior shoe products.

I love the Acheson, the Grayson just won’t work.
