Venetian Shoe Cream, 3 Ounces, Neutral

If you want to condition and give your boots a little bit of shine then this is the product you’ll need. I’ve used many products on my 30 pairs of boots and I’ve heard many good things about this product before purchasing it. I can now say that I wish I’d bought it long ago. It makes it easy to care and make your boots look rejuvenated and the color of the leather more vibrant with just the right amount of shine. I’ve done 6 pairs of boots and only used half the bottle.

Very good, I've used a few different leather lotions: Dillards leather lotion ( which they sell in the store, but I haven't been able to find anymore), Leather Honey, and Johnson and Murphy's leather lotion. I like this one allot. It's very creamy, which allows it to go a long way and absorbs pretty well into the leather. I've used on my brown Johnson and Murphy's Chelsea Boots and my brown leather jacket from Wilson's leather. My black Thursday boot company boots were drenched in water as I was caught in the rain on the bike and I let my boots dry out with cedar trees in them. After two days, they smelt of mold so I cleaned them with mold remover watered down. Did the trick. My boots were extremely dry I have slathered Venetian Shoe cream on them in one sitting, not wiping off the excess. The boots were malleable, but too stiff and creaked when I walked. I then proceeded to slather the boots in the shoe cream again for another night, inside and out, then performed the ritual again the next night and the boots have become close to their original feel. This product works, as of now, no color change, no cracking, nor has there been any degradation from the shoe cream even though I've applied a large amount in such a short span of time. We will see in the future but after a week the boots are getting back to their original feel.

The boots are Red Wing Iron Rangers in Charcoal Rough and Tough color. I had applied Sno Seal to them to make them waterproof and didn’t really like the way they looked after a weekend of hiking. Hard to explain, but the wax seemed to concentrate at crease points in the toe area and some parts were shiner than others. Anyway, I got some Fiebing’s Saddle Soap to remove the wax. I used a horsehair dauber brush and scrubbed quite thoroughly and went over them twice. Most of the wax was removed, but I couldn’t seem to get it all off. I thought I’d try the Venetian Shoe Cream, as it says it cleans and polished. It contains petroleum distillates, and I thought it might remove the remaining wax. It seems to have done so. The boot on the right is after the saddle soap but before the Venetian Shoe Cream, while the boot on the left is after the Venetian Shoe Cream (just one coat). I was very pleased with the outcome. I had used Venetian Shoe Cream a little bit before, but this really elevated my opinion of it!

The Kiwi version seems just as good and smells better. Plus is cheaper. This works fine though.

If you have fine shoes this is an essential part of your shoe-care system.

Helps clean and preserve leather. Left a smooth gloss. Use as little as required for a complete application. Test in a less visible spot. I had not difficulty with color change or spotting.

Used VSC on my RedWing 1907 CR&T. Great conditioner but will darken slightly from when new. In person it looks almost like a matte version of the ORO RW Mocs. Personally I like the look and it doesn’t bother might not like that. But I’m sure it will lighten up. Application is smooth and did soften the leather. First photo, the right boot was after a day washed with light coat of saddle soap, so it was a lot dryer and lighter and in dire need of hydration. Right boot is conditioned with Venetian shoe cream. Last two photos I used on some really neglected pair of TCX rook boots. No saddle soap, just brushed and conditioned. Not sure how it will be during rain yet, but the description doesn’t say it water resistant.

This cream is perfect for shell cordovan leather. I just bought my grail boots, the Grant Stone Maduro Shell Diesel’s(refer to photo) and I conditioned it with this VSC. Look at the results. I simply applied a pea size and spread it all over. Then I buffed with a brush and a microfiber rag. The results speak for itself (refer to the photo). Results of a thin layer of VSC. Also used it in my shell cordovan card holder. Same shine and the wallet really needed it too. Can’t get any better because this cream has some waxes in it so you can use it on all kinds of leather, cxl, shell, kudu, etc,. Smooth leathers but not for rough out or suede. This stuff also doesn’t have a smell which is nice. I used to use Saphir products and sometimes I still do but their cream and polish smell so strong I don’t like it. The VSC has no smells whatsoever and you can apply it with your bare hands. Or at least I do.

Esperava mais deste produto, achei muito “aguado” comparado a um produto nacional que tenho bem melhor!

Tolle, reichhaltige Schuhcreme für hochwertiges Leder.

浸透性よくベタつかない

Used this on my Red Wing boots, softened up the leather and gave it a nice sheen after brushing it

Works well,buffs up to a nice shine without darkening leather.
