The Secret to Polishing Shoes, Quickly

The Secret to Polishing Shoes, Quickly

shine_to_go.jpgAs a kid, I vividly recall dad sitting on the side of the bed, methodically laying out a series of tools.  Included were a cloth, a wire brush, a small tin and a bottle of liquid.  What the heck was all that stuff?

Bring some old-school good business sense back to the work game, without the mess and the all of the tools.  Totally portable and entirely fool-proof, Shine to Go shoe polisher is the latest tool you need to add to your arsenal for career success.

I’m one of those unlucky blokes, who despite my limited interaction with the outside world, must be strangled daily by a necktie.  That means nothing less than spit-shined shoes will do.  But it never works out that way. My shirts are nice and pressed.  My tie is knotted to perfection.  And my favorite Cole Haan shoes look like I walked through the forest to get to work.

But a clean, well-groomed, tailored look undoubtedly commands respect.  According to FHM Magazine, 89% of men in the U.S. and Europe consider grooming  an essential part of professional success.  That’s why I endorse Shine to Go.  Sorry dad, time to pack your secret shoe shine kit away.

The no-mess applicator contains a pre-applied conditioning polish that fits over two fingers.  One cloth will polish a single pair of shoes.  Keep a pack in your briefcase, wallet or purse (yes, women need shine too!), and spiffy shoes are never more than a few minutes away.

If you want to give the polish a go, let me know!  The folks at Shine to Go have hooked us up with some samples.  Just e-mail your name, address and color shoes you wanna make all pretty. The goods are available in black, brown and clear. Hurry while supplies last!
