To this day, every one of my leather shoes are spit polished the old fashion military way, as I was in the US Coast Guard Honor Guard, and you had to do this daily. There is nothing like a clean pair of highly polished shoes. I make sure each pair is put back with shoe trees, I really do take care of my shoes. I was brought up to do so, because shoes were expensive, and we only got about two pair a year, one for beginning of school year, and one pair for Easter Sunday. Sneakers for summer.
