Justin FitzPatrick, a self-described ‘artisinal shoe polisher’ with a shine stand at Gieves & Hawkes on Savile Row, is a master at breathing new life into old shoes. Here, via Mr Porter, he takes us through the slow and steady stages of cleaning, feeding, colour rejuvenation and final polish, the results impressive indeed.
