I just noticed a few small scuffs on a leather belt I have from Gucci, would it be ok to use Saphir cream on the belt to fix them? It's Saphir Medaille d'Or Pommadier Cream specifically. I use it for my leather boots/shoes, but wasn't sure if it was ok to use on a leather belt. Anyone with any...

I was looking around for leather jackets, and was trying to find in particular a leather jacket made of a more soft type leather(ie. lamb, calf, kangaroo, etc.), and in more of a "fashion" style, like something more sleek as opposed to the more bulky biker/gear type look. Looking around...

Ok, I tried contacting them, but all they said to me was to buff it with a wet cloth and it might stop. They seemed uninterested and generally unhelpful. Thank you for the suggestion though. I sorta figured I'm probably just going to need to deal with it as part of owning this jacket. One...

I'm noticing this jacket is now bleeding even more from other areas, like the collar now, and it's bleeding into my shirts. I don't understand, as this is a Schott Perfecto jacket and supposed to be very high quality, yet it's bleeding like this. I've had this jacket for a few years now without...

I just got a pair of leather loafers in a size 8.5, and ordered a shoe tree for them, sadly its been delayed and may not get here til April 3rd(assuming it isn't lost in the mail). I wasn't sure if I should just buy a shoe tree in the store tomorrow, or wait to see if the one I ordered arrives...

It bleeds onto my pants when the belt of the jacket happens to touch/rest of them.

I made a thread before asking for advice on what to do about stopping the bleeding of dye from this belt on my black leather Schott Perfecto jacket. The area where the bleeding is coming from is inside this space in the tip of the belt where the stitching is, I added some photos showing this so...

I mainly just asked out of curiosity, particularly because I'll see so many arguments on this topic, with some even saying you don't need shoe trees at all, then the debates over split toe vs full toe, etc. Loafers I wasn't sure, since I've seen some claim they don't need them at all, while...

The two shoe trees I was debating between: Stratton Cedar Shoe Trees for Men Men's Full Shoe Tree (pair) Also, does it matter if the tree is split or full toe?

To maintain the shape of them, help with removing moisture, minimize creasing. People always mention that as the reasons to use them for western boots which is why I got them for those. And I asked about dress shoes, as well as loafers because I wasn't sure if there was enough of a difference...

Can anyone give some input on this? I have both a pair of YSL dress boots(Wyatt harness boots), and a Gucci boot with horsebit detail; and recently purchased a loafer from Gucci as well(Jordaan). I've seen this topic come up a lot, but wasn't sure what the general definitive answer was. Do you...

Is a small heel slip a big issue? I've seen a few sources claim the heel bed adjusts or something, so a slight heel slip isn't as much of an issue. The problem I am noticing now is trying these on with thicker socks, the right shoe is now uncomfortably tight, with the toes feeling cramped. Which...

I bought a pair of leather loafers today and need an opinion on the fit. I wear a size 9 1/2, but have uneven feet(right foot is slightly bigger than the left), which I have to take into account when sizing for shoes. In the store I tried on two pairs and had to size down; the size 8 1/2 felt...

Any brands or types of dye you'd recommend? I've heard of Dharma Raven Black, Rit Back to Black, and Jacquard Procion MX Jet Black. Which of these would be the best to use, or are there others you'd suggest?

Denim, they're denim blue jeans
