In today's video, Kirby restores a pair of Carmina Replica Russian Reindeer Chukka Boots. These are Kirby's weekend warrior boots and are desperately in need of some shoe polish! The replica Russian reindeer leather is an oiled leather, very similar to Chromexcel, so the proper protocol for shining these shoes is different than standard calfskin.

Saphir Medaille d'Or's Oiled Leather Cream is perfect for Chromexcel and other oiled leathers because the oils restore the natural look of the leather. Be careful not to use any standard shoe polishes designed for calfskin. The waxes in these products will alter the texture of the leather.
