Can someone quickly and concisely tell me what I need to buy to restore a pair of black leather shoes before tomorrow. I wore them pretty well and I haven't touched them in a while. They have very noticeable wear and creasing on the leather that I'd like to reduce if possible.
My goal is to make them functional again by giving them some shine back, making them look less worn and reducing blemishes. Basically a facelift to put them back in the rotation temporarily.
I have done a bit of searching and I just have ended up confused. It looks like there are cleaning products, polishes, oils, waxes, etc etc etc. I've read articles that say to apply one thing and leave it for a while, buff it out and then apply something else. I even read one guide that recommended applying pine gum!
Please help guys, I'm lost. How do I do a bit of restoration on these things (cheaply) to get them back into the rotation temporarily? They are cheap shoes, so that's why I mentioned cheaply (I'm not resoling these or taking them to a cobbler or anything).
