Cleaning umpire shoes

[teebob21]

My shoe care regimen has evolved to this over the years:

• A dry terry cloth towel to get most of the dust
• A dry microfiber cloth to get into the seams and laces
• Murphy's Oil Soap or saddle soap + water in a spray bottle for general cleaning
• Scrub with a soft toothbrush when I want them clean down to bare leather
• Kiwi black polish and a horsehair brush
• Liquid polish for sole edge touchups
• Silicone impregnated shine sponge for a quick buff

Clean before or after each game; polish as needed.
