You should have been alive in the ' 50s and early ' 60s where every corner had a shoeshine guy and every barber had better know how to use a " cutthroat " or he didn't have many customers . My dad would take me to the barbers on Saturday ( I was born in '52 , so I was young enough to live it but old enough to absorb it .) All the men would be there getting theirstraight razor shaves and fresh haircuts for Saturday night and church on Sunday along with their shines by the old handicapped military guy ( from world War 2 ) so they'd be right with their wives and the preacher .

@@ramirososa7566 I used to use a cutthroat , but age crept up on me and my hands got to where they were shaking too much . Had a nice one from Germany with a horn handle . Learned how to hone the blade from an old time barber who had the patience of Job !! It's a dying skill . Now all the barbers use handles that have disposable blades and they don't have to practice patience with honing and moving the skin of different textures . That's why the barber had to know his customers , every persons skin is different and stretches and moves a different way and how it's manipulated makes the difference between a great close shave and a butchered job.

Corona of course put graduation on hold, but I bought him a beautiful pair of Johnston Murphys for when he is actually able to graduate. He'll be going on to Boston University Law School and wants to keep the shoes all the way through his law career. I gave him this video so he would know how to maintain them for as many years as he could. When he saw how the acetone made the shoes stand tall oh, he broke into a smile.

@@youngyankee13 si parece por lo que he ido viendo que puede que sea Acetona. Quitaesmaltes. Lo único que usar eso significa un posterior teñido fuerte. Sólo con Betún no le darias el color necesario. Obviamente será solo en situaciones de recuperación o restauración. Para cuidado normal es muy arriesgado.

I remember having to learn how to mirror shine my shoes in the military. I had to iron my uniform. Keep my hat nice and my hair neat. I joined right before everything went to suede and wash and wear uniforms, so I saw both sides. I remember having a nice pair that you wore to functions and to and from work, then you had a "nasty" pair that you didn't stress about getting scuffed when you were out doing work. I remember when I had to show a new guy how to shine his shoes for a date, because the ones they started to issue were patent leather. (And you looked like a real noob if you wore those out) All in all this is so beautiful.

In all honesty, I am watching your videos to relax myself. The piano music in the background, you have a great voice, and the whole process motivate me to buy Oxford shoes. A human touch to help those fellas in need of a good pair shoes will take you higher. Continue taking good care of that baby girl you also mentioned. Dude, you are simply amazing!

Thank you for what you do. There is something about having a well made, good quality pair of shoes, and for someone who may not be able to afford such quality, for you to help others, that is humbling. Thank you. 🙏🏽 Keep up the good work cause one day soon, you will be inundated with more requests!!
