I have always been a leather guy but my favorite Converse shoes are discontinued. Any recommendations for a leather shoe that will take and sustain traditional polish?

Have you checked out the new "New Balance 610" (High Shine) model? They were promoted in the November, 2006 issue of Referee Magazine on page 40. They retail for $63 but I noticed them being advertised in this month's (Dec.) issue of Referee Magazine (inside back cover) with Purchase Officials www.purchaseofficials.com priced at $59. They're promoted as a leather upper shoe with a "pre-shine" finish.

Good luck!

LOVE them!!! It's the first time in about 6 years when I've bought a new shoe and really actually like them for their look and feel. I got the low-cut for $55 (including shipping!).

I bought them also. They look and feel great! They are not the patent leather style. They are a good leather shoe with a natural shine. The back has a small patch of nylon web material, but no pull tab like the cross trainer.

Where did you get them for that price and shipping?

Got them through an assignor. I just looked to see if the deal was still available, but I don't see it anymore. Sorry. 🙁

Do you know if the "New Balance 610" (High Shine) model comes in a mid-cut?
I'll go to the New Balance web site soon. I need the mid-cut for support.

I don't know. There was a mid-cut in the offer that I got, but I don't remember if it was the 610. Sorry.
