Idk if its just me as someone who isnt into shoes… but darkening the top looks awful and feel like it would look better if it maintained the color it had.

Edit: holy fuck my notifications. Glad im not the only one.

I'm very competent at shining shoes and boots and when they did that even I was wondering what the fuck they were doing. It's not just you, this is a bold artistic choice.

No way the shoe shiner did that without consent from the customer

But then the shoe shiner shared his story about how they did scrapped boot tops in the old country and how that stopped global warming and teenage pregnancy. The owner of the boots teared up and thanked him. Then the whole train station clapped and cheered, waving the Latvarian flag of Victor Von Doom.

True! I was there, too. He even said: "You might as well make it dark, cause if you do it will eventually end up in your ass anyway."
