This page is now completely unusable on an iPhone thanks to their new advertisers. Something is broken in the ad-serving technology, and it keeps resetting the page. Impossible to use.- eTrojan

Vintage Dress shoe appreciation, tips, maintenance and advice
When my Empires arrived, the buckskin had so much white shoe polish embedded, that they seemed to be calf. As always, I started with saddle soap to take the top layer of grime and polish off to see what I was looking at. Four rounds of saddle soap later, trying to get the white polish to stop...- eTrojan

Vintage Dress shoe appreciation, tips, maintenance and advice
My maiden voyage with a pair of LB Sheppard shell LWB I recently picked up. I’ve done only a minimal amount of cleaning and conditioning. There is a lot of residual polish that I haven’t taken the time to remove. A couple rounds of saddle soap, which was still turning burgundy with excess...- eTrojan

Vintage Dress shoe appreciation, tips, maintenance and advice
The Florsheim Kenmoor last rubs hard on the head of my fifth metatarsal, and it doesn't matter whether I'm wearing an A-width or a AA-width. By the end of the day, the bone that protrudes on the outside of my foot below my little toe hurts. Badly. I don't have that issue with the LB Sheppards...- eTrojan

I'm increasingly leaning into my LB Sheppards over my Florsheim. They fit my foot better, and are really well made.- eTrojan
