What amazes me is that Kirby can shine shoes without getting any polish on his hands, lol. Next thing you know, he'll be shaving while wearing a tie--oh wait, he's been there done that too. Thanks as always, Kirby.
I wondered about that too! Hard to get that off the hands too.
Kirby can do that, because he is a genius
Nice to see another Kirby shoe shine video.
THANK YOU SO MUCH !!!! you are my savior ! Since 6 months I used the wrong product and did not understand why I did not have the mirror effect. I was bought the mirror saphir product directly and now it shines brightly !!!!!! THANK YOU !!! you save my life
I just love that mirror shine, something magical.
Sir you are the epitome of a well dressed man, surely you should where an apron when shining your shoes! 😉 thanks for the tips 🙂
Well done. I mirror shined my shoes quickly thanks to this video. Thank you.
Good job
That’s a really beautiful shoe!
Excellent. Inspirational. Just ordered the essentials from the hanger project website
Lovely Shoes!
This is pretty much how the Army taught me to shine my Class A shoes and combat boots.
Back then the basic combat boot was an all-black leather boot, not like the "no-shine" brown boots they wear today. I had a custom pair of Danner Tanker boots. Tanker boots don't have laces but rather straps that wrap around the ankle and upper part of the boot so that when a hot aft cap falls from the main gun after firing a 120mm tank round it would hit nothing but leather whereas laces would melt and fall apart. I polished those boots to a high shine every day after final formation while watching the local news and drinking a beer.
Being combat arms, we didn't wear Class As often except on special events like funereal details, Class A formation inspections, promotion boards, or unit dinners once a year so the shoes stayed shined pretty well all the time.
Details on that jacket? It’s beautiful!
Kirby, does it make a big difference whether using the Black or Neutral Saphir Mirror Gloss wax? I imagine if I had to choose between the two and just have one, neutral would be more versatile for black and brown shoes? Appreciate your advice. Thanks.
Lovely shoe.
Nice job
I’d be scared to get it on my nice clothes. Also... these shoes are awesome. Makes me think, “business in the front, party in the back”...
Kirby, would you see a similar look on the toe box if you used neutral mirror gloss instead of pigmented? Thanks
Shout out to me Brixton Boyz - East Side. This here shine looks amazing. Jaws will drop. My question to you, Mr. Kirby Allison, is since human skin is like leather -- or would be like leather if you was to cut it off and hang it up and dry it -- could I use this mirror shine on me knob? Me is thinking Cherry be jazzed to see her reflection when she is down there taking care of business. Then that mirror shine should give one wild ride when we be bouncing around.
Hi Kirby,
Do you find that your mirror gloss finish on the cap toe is quite fragile and diminishes after 1-2 wears of walking/using the shoes outdoors? I myself can easily get the mirror shine but find it quite hard to preserve in London weather, even over the course of a single week.
Would you have any tips for making a mirror shine more durable to the elements?
Look at the elegant oxford
Also how much does the bespoke shoes cost?
Kirby, if these are MTO, what are these creased in the cap? Wouldn’t MTO prevent this, or using the pencil method to set creases?
Can I get the mirror with only neutral cream-wax?
Warden Norton approves
HI Kirby, what is your impression of Saint Crispin shoes? Ive only seen a few at Leffot, I own several pair of John Lobb's and one pair of Anthony Cleverley. Saint Crispin seems even nicer...thoughts??
Do you recommend metal toe plates in general?
Depends on how you walk, but for most people it's worth doing since it costs much less than a resole and will make you actually wear out the leather sole. Without toe plates you end up having to replace the sole when you get near the welt on the tip of your shoe just to protect your shoes, which can be premature.
Basically, if your toes wear out before the middle of your sole gets really soft, get plates. This is 90% of people.
David thank you
what do you wear it with?
If that fast food review dude had good taste this is what he could have been
That Yak brush seems to shed more than my dog.
Decent instruction but mostly an infomercial for his products.
That's a beautiful pair of shoes, you treat them well!
Hello Kirby or anyone else who's reading this. I was looking into getting a Saphir shoe polish for one of my shoes. They are the Florsheim Kenmoor Wingtip Oxfords in Burgundy and I was wondering which color of polish to buy. Any replies would be helpful. Thanks
Cheers from Brazil Kirby! You are really getting better on this routine every day! Such an amazing result!
Kirby is the true shoe shine champion
Hi Kirby. What a nice jacket. Unfortunately you didn't do the clothing introduction as usual. Anyway great video. Thanks always.
Watched this video under recommendation of Jason Dornstar! I DONT REGRET IT! Thank you for your sharing of knowledge
Great video! Weird that you did the suede part after the polishing and mirror shine though.
Nice mirror shine! 👍❤️
17:33 I do that to my girlfriend, yo.
The Saphir Mink oil or Dubbin conditions are better than the Renovateur.
The high gloss requires the use of water/alcohol fluid to make it soft and pliable while the de Luxe does not need additional fluids.
2022 My 13 year old got me watching this video. He’s into dress shoes this school year.
Drove me nuts! You totally missed the toe tip edges! The edges, in general don't look as good as they could. You can obviously tell he was never in the military. They would never pass inspection!
Another superb video from the "man in a suit" I'm still on a learning curve with mirror shines and even though I'm getting a decent shine with mirror gloss it's taking ages to fill the pores in the leather kirby, is it because I'm working on new shoes that it's taking me so long?
Thanks.
Yes, you have to build up layers of wax.
I love watching these, and then as a soldier, I do the total opposite as in we polish the whole shoe, I soak the rag and wring it out, I use a leather balm and used to be kiwi but now saphir mirror shine yet I still end up with high mirrored shoe.
'Wellington shoe laces'
Mind blown
No one seems to talk about how to look after Patent Leather
Work perfectly, not “work perfect”.
Pıty he dıd not do the soles.
Elegant shoes
Thank you
Why must shoes be shiny?
Obsessive compulsive disorder
@@steventrosiek2623 You may be right. The USMC went to "rough out" (sueded) boots, saving Marines hours of shining time. Wish I had been there for that!
What shoe Brands and houses would you recommend visiting on my upcoming trip to Milan. Preferably Brands around or Under the $400 price point.
Hi Kirby, I really enjoy your videos. I own a few StC and they are absolutely fantastic. Greetings from the Netherlands.
Thanks for sharing bro , you are amazing 💪🏴☠️🏴☠️❤️
when it comes to taking care of the edges and the heel, what is the difference between applying cream polish + mirror gloss as opposed to just applying edge dressing?
Top 2 vid on this subject - Probably number 1
You still got it Kirby! Glad to see you're not letting Caleb have all of the fun.
Sweet shoes. I really like the suede leather combo.
Shine sophistication. Thanks.
I’d be scared to get it on my nice clothes.
The other reason to straight-lace your shoes is if you are in an emergency and a paramedic needs to get your shoes off quickly, it is much easier to cut through a straight-lace compared to criss-crossed laces.
wow
Mr. Allison ... great content as always .... may I suggest shrtening the videos or using time lapse technique while having your voice over....
I thank you sir for the great content you are putting here.... truly amazing job!
All you need is a hairdryer to remove old polish kiwi parade gloss and a selvyt cloth dont need fancy brushes or polish easy if you know how
Kirby is there any bespoke tailors here in the sates that sells ready to wear? I bought some sports jackets from a well known brand and I’m not impressed to say the least.
The edge of the sole remained not beautiful.
He fixes the sole at around 37:00

More and more creams, polishes, various bottles appear just for regular cleaning your fucking shoes.... I remember we always had one brush and one container with one shoe cream. Apply cream, wait a bit, then shine with the brush and you are done.
