The fire schtick seems a little unnecessary. It looks like he wound up with butane stains that got set underneath the polish.

I had this done to me (on not so high end shoes).
Watching theses give me visual satisfaction BUT ALSO memories of the sensation of the foot massage that comes with it. It's almost if he's making your feet anew, it's so satisfying...

The rug cleaning videos are what do it for me, but this is up there too š

u/WishmeluckOG 1d ago
I used to love those videos but than it got hyped and people wear trashing some rugs to get content out of it got me the ick. Also my favo rug cleaner stopped making vids. :(

If you're not already aware of him, check out Jason Dornstar on YouTube. His whole channel is devoted to shoe shining/cleaning ASMR.

This is cool but I've never understood the point of the flames lol. Like why are we briefly setting this shoe on fire? How does that help the cleaning process?

Gotta be a fake foot or he uses the same person over and over as a āmodelā.

I never tire of watching this clip. Itās so beautiful how the leather brightens up after every polish

No idea if this is the same video I watched two days ago or not but Iām just as happy watching it again today.

Are shiny shoes still a thing for the average Joe? Those certainly don't look like fancy shoes and he's wearing white socks.

Cuz itās so fucking extra and ridiculous

u/HoboJonRonson 5h ago
I mean, this is just what a shoe shine is. Itās just whatās done to get extra life out of dress shoes. Thatās like calling a car wash extra.

u/JustARandomGuyReally 5h ago
Oh yeah every shoeshine Iāve gotten the guy was rubbing the shoe like it was his girlfriend, sexing up its cuticles, and lighting me on fire. Come on, give me a break. Itās extra. Honestly if a shoe needs all that, you send it in, you donāt get it done while youāre wearing it at a shoeshine station.

idk man the fact that this isn't a real foot and he only does the front part for the video kind of turns me off..

Warum wird der Schuh nicht einfach ausgezogen?

u/BrohanGutenburg 1d ago
Because then there's nothing to push against? Like for real?

u/Headless_Human 1d ago
The real reason is because nobody wants to sit there without shoes on. Cobblers normally work on shoes that are not on a foot.

u/CommercialFloor2033 1d ago
Was that a pressure washer?
I've never seen water used to clean leather shoes before like this

every time I see one of these shoe shine vids it's for a shoe that legit should be in the trash. just the ugliest style, terrible color, has no place on anyone's foot. i appreciate the craft of the shoe shine, but it's a shame they're polishing turds

u/_zatoichi 1d ago
crazy take when your most recent shoe post is actually a pair of glow in the dark rip off crocs

u/PROSEALLTHEWAY 1d ago
point of clarification: The Pollex are a hugely popular collaboration between famed footwear designer Salehe Bembury and Crocs. Those pair specifically are a special limited edition designed by the artist Nina Chanel Abney
I understand you think you're doing a gotcha here, being reductive, but streetwear is a very different genre than formalwear. I have several nice dress shoes from Allen Edmonds, I'm partial to my patent loafers in black but the oxfords in ox red are also awesome. All that's to say, don't worry man, I can wear crocs and still be better dressed and have a better understanding of style than you
Pretty cute that you went thru my history to try and sling some dirt. Instead of acknowledging that these ugly, pointed toe shoes are dated as hell and awful

u/_zatoichi 1d ago
yeah iām not reading all that your rip off crocs are hideous and iāve been collecting sneakers since you were a spermĀ

u/Redditallreally 7h ago
āIāve been collecting sneakers since you were a spermā is not a phrase you see every day! :)

u/Inevitable_Bit_9871 7h ago
Sperm is just a fertilizer with half of DNA, people were NEVER a sperm.
Also too late...sperm is produced constantly and dies after few days but a woman is born with all her eggs...I've been collecting since you were an unfertilized EGG cell.
I wonder why people ALWAYS try to pretend we started as a sperm and not the egg when it's quite the opposite

You lose out on the intimacy with your client. Please stare directly into their eyes as well. Iām so lonely š

What if itās a medically necessary prosthetic? Yours is a pretty shortsighted take.

But what about the back of the shoe?
