Re: Brown boot polish
Best to use for a period correct color is a dark mohogany

Re: Brown boot polish
Go with the Kiwi Brown "parade gloss" type. I found it ONCE in a shoe store as it is not usually stocked but you can find it online at amazon, etc. as it is a current production item. Also look for BROWN edge dressing. Also available from Feibing as an order item and correct for your boots.
BTW, the parade gloss has better ingredients that the plain old Kiwi brown polish and as such it provides a better shine (spit shine) without having to actually do a spit shine.
Hope this helps.

Re: Brown boot polish
The dark mohogany gives a more correct color to the boots than standard brown

Re: Brown boot polish
I have NOS cans of Shinola. If you want any they are $25.00 a can. I think that I have two left.
