Question 1

Which Meltonian shoe cream could be used for Johnston&Murphy Tuscan Brown(which is evidently no longer made.)

Accepted Answer

Just be sure not to use the Meltonian Light Brown polish on your Tuscan Brown or British Tan shoes — it's greenish yellow! U G L Y !

Question 2

May I know the color difference about white, neutral and cleaner? Thanks

Accepted Answer

Shoe Cleaner is good for removing dirt, stains and the old built up polish from leather. When extra layers of polish build up the leather is not able to breathe as well and perspiration can eventually break down the leather. Cleaning can also restore the natural oils that keep leather pliable.Neutral is the "color" for light colored shoes. Other colors may have to be matched by taking one of your shoes with you when you buy polish because some of the fancy names will throw you. Or you can ask your local shoe repairperson what color is right.

Question 3

Is the Neutral cream good for any leather color?

Accepted Answer

I have never used any cream or polish that did not match the color of the leather. I don't see where if would harm the object being protected.

Question 4

Does the neutral darken natural leather?

Accepted Answer

I've used the neutral for decades (it's great) mostly for brown shoes and boots.  This is great cream; and in the process of moisturizing, it does darken the shade (tonal value light to dark) of the leather but does NOT change the hue (color) on all the shoes and boots I've polished (a lot over the years).   So yes it does darken the leather (in my experience).  It's simply a natural result of the moisturizing.  But the results, in my view, always look nice; and the leather looks clean and healthy.  Meltonian is a great product.
