Our Service

We aim to provide you not only a great shine, but also a great
experience. We want the ten or fifteen minutes that you choose to spend
with us to be stress free, enjoyable and most of all, memorable. Just sit
back and relax, read the paper, or strike up a conversation with our
skilled, but friendly Service Professionals.

Along with a relaxing experience, we promise not only a great shine, but
the best shine you have ever had. We think we can have most shoes
looking as good as or better than the day you took your first step in
them. We’re so confident in our service, that if you’re not completely
satisfied, the shine is on us.

The key to a great shine is much more than the application of a coat of
polish. The secret is in the both the products and the process.

One must understand the type of leather, and from there, recognize
which products will bring out the original shine or luster in that leather.
Cleaning and removing old polish build up is critical. Repairing the
cracks and restoring moisture back into the leather must be completed
prior to applying any cream or polish onto the shoe. Having the proper
brushes and shine clothes can make the difference in the shoe actually
absorbing the products, as opposed to merely coating the shoes with the
products.

This intricate process will insure not only that the shine is long lasting,
but also that the life of the shoe is significantly extended. All this comes
from understanding what products the shoe requires, in what order they
should be applied, and close attention to the proper application itself. It's
not just a shine, it's an "art".

As for the quality of our products, we use nothing but the finest polish
and creams. Our Meltonian cream and Lincoln brand polish are all
imported from America. A little know fact about the products we use: 
The U.S. Army banned their soldiers from using the Lincoln brand of polish,
as the soldiers "were not having to work hard enough
!

Depending on what condition your shoes are in, as well as how much
time you have, we offer three kinds of shines.

Standard Shine – 2 Coats
Executive Shine – 3 Coats
Imperial Shine –  4 Coa

The reality is, most shoes probably need an Executive Shine. If it’s been
several months, then you may require the Imperial Shine to really bring
back the original luster. If you stop by every couple of weeks, the
Standard Shine will probably be enough to keep you looking your best.

We hope to see you soon!
