So it was actually my wife who has asked me to find a good shoe care kit since she has some busted up leather boots. I've been needing one anyway, so I'm glad she brought it up.
I can piece something together if I have to, but I'd prefer to just find an all-in-one solution. A valet is optional, but it seems like a cool feature if it doesn't add too much to the cost.
So far, this one seems to have the best bang for the buck, and I can pick it up locally:

The down side is the lack of separate brushes. Also, it may be a bit small to fit everything if I buy more stuff.
This one has a bigger box and multiple brushes, but costs more and has no soap or neutral creme polish:

For what it's worth, between my wife and I, we have quite a few pairs of shoes in black and in various shades of brown. So we're looking for a versatile kit.
I'd like to keep the cost under $100, but if I'm spending anywhere near that much, I better be getting a LOT for my money.
