Venetian Shoe Cream
Reddit take
Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.
Pros
- I added 3 coats of Venetian Shoe cream. Hit it with a low heat gun. ... It was actually pretty simple.
- It does a good job of conditioning and also has some wax to it that gives some shine and extra protection.
- if you want to minimize darkness you want to go with a milder neutral conditioner like venetian shoe cream or bick4
- most people don’t use pigmented cream on chromexcel and stick with neutral conditioners like venetian shoe cream or bick4
- you can restore a waxed suede with a waxy conditioner (like venetian shoe cream) which will help re-flatten the nap and provide more wax for the waxed finish.
Cons
- The industry standard seems to be the Venetian Shoe Cream.
- I tried a few different conditioners (Bick 4, Saphir greasy leather cream, and venetian shoe cream), and the clear winner was VSC.
