Shoe trees in cedar wood
Shoe trees in cedar wood which are expandable both in length and width. To use a pair of shoe trees of high quality will prolong the lifespan of your shoes considerably, since it helps the shoes retain its shape at the same time as they can dry in a good way. Shoe trees stretch out creases and make sure that the toe doesn’t rise up.
Manufactured in untreated red cedar wood with a lovely scent, which absorb moisture in a great way at the same time as it eliminates potential odour and deter harmful insects. Brass coloured, stainless steel parts and a practical knob, which makes it easy to put in and take out the shoe trees. Also works excellent in boots, since the most important job for a shoe tree is to straighten the sole and creases over the vamp, if you turn the shoe tree slightly outwards when you insert it it will slip in easily.
The trees are relatively large in size, it’s common to go down 0,5-1 size compared to the size you wear in your Goodyear welted shoes, more info in this guide. For women’s shoes we recommend that you go down two sizes compared to your shoe size, in this guide there's more info on shoe trees for women's shoes. You can also adjust the width with a screw, more info below.

While you’re at it, brush off dirt with a shoe brush or wipe them off with a dishcloth, and have two pairs of shoes to switch between so they are allowed to dry properly. This in combination with some shoe cream every now and then will make wonder for the lifespan of your shoes. Good for your shoes, good for your wallet and not least good for the environment.

How to use
Saphir Medaille d'Or Pate De Luxe is a wax polish that gives good protection and can be used to build up an amazing shine. Use a polishing cloth and apply with light, quick circular movements a thin layer of wax over the shoe, don't use too much, and every now and then you dip the cloth in water put small drips of water directly on the shoe, to reduce friction. Can also be used on the sole- and heel edge to achieve a shine on these.
You may put maximum two layers of wax over the entire shoe, don't do more on the parts that move since the wax surface may crack. Let the shoe rest 5-10 minutes and then brush with a shoe brush with horsehair bristles.
On the hard heel stiffener and especially on the toe you can build up a proper high shine with more thin layers of Pate de Lux. A so-called spit-shine or bullet shine. Continute with small drips of water and thin layers of wax, pause regularly and let the wax dry, and brush up the finish again, now ideally with a shoe brush with goat hair that doesn't scratch the shiny finish.
