Tarrago Shoe Cream Professional Shoe Polish for Leather Boots, Shoes, Purse, Furniture Eco Friendly Leather Conditioner 1.7oz - White #01

This leather cream polish provided amazing coverage for my gray designer handbag. I did a lot of research on various brands before purchasing. I based my purchase on previous reviews primarily because you can’t always believe what the manufacturer states. This cream polish went on very smooth and the pigment immediately soaked up the leather bringing it right back to life. It didn’t stain the original leather, just blended it in for a perfect match. The bottom corners on my soft leather purse had faded over the years and I wanted to brighten it up. This cream polish didn’t dry chalky at all or have a “crusted” finish after applying a couple layers. It also did not darken the original leather. It really looks new again. I did put a light coat of leather conditioner over the entire bag. The color did not rub off at all on clothing (I checked). I previously ordered the same color in a big name cheaper brand and it did nothing to the color, just conditioned it a little. I am sold on the Tarragon brand and plan on purchasing more colors. A little goes a long way.

I bought this very fancy shoe polish for my expensive Mephisto shoes (a gift, lucky me) which are aubergine-coloured. It is a very high quality cream and works well. Need I say more?

Why did you pick this product vs others?:I have a 6 year old recliner that was beginning to show some wear on the armrest. I ran across the Tarrago shoe cream in steel gray and thought I would give it a try before donating the chair. Boy, am I glad that I did! I am including before and after pics so you can see the results! It is absolutely amazing! The color is spot on and it blends seamlessly. This is only after one light application. I am sold on Tarrago shoe cream. I plan to order some in different colors for my Tieks.

I liked the results of my dress shoes when polished with this brand. Only issue was I pushed the glass container off my desk and it broke into pieces . I did however immediately order again and I will be more careful.

Untreated boot on the right, treated one on the left.I was taking a chance here, since these Mia "Jody" Boots are 100% faux leather. They're by far the most comfortable all-day boot I've ever worn, more so than any high quality, high price leather brand, so it was worth finding out if I could spruce them up a bit after over a year of constant wear. Also, I wanted to lean a little more into a rust tone, since my favorite Portland Leather Goods bag is more of a russet shade.This is what one coating of the Russet Brown cream did to the original 'Luggage' brown color of the Jody Boot. I'm absolutely stunned, it's beautiful.I cut a narrow strip from a regular dish sponge for precise application, and just scrubbed the cream into the vinyl—including the sides of the sole, and the heel, which are also vinyl. I let it sit for one minute to dry down, then buffed it well with a soft microfiber cloth, which produced very minimal transfer. Basically a 5-minute makeover.Since the Mia boots are so inexpensive—I got these brand new for about $30 when on sale—I plan to get another couple pairs to see how the Red or the Purple creams might transform brown faux leather. It's clearly pigmented enough to alter color, not just renew it. Highly recommended, obviously.

Fantastic product and perfect shade match.

Used on a pair of Italian white leather loafers ( s 12), definitely brought up a little brighter white color in most partsproduced a nice low sheen shine and soft texture , used almost 1/3 of the little jar it came in! Easy soap and water cleanup. good but EXPENSIVE

I ordered Tarrago #15 Dark Gray. It's not really all that dark at all. At best it is a medium gray, and actually it's a bit lighter than that. I could see it wasn't going to match at all (for filling in some cracks in some non-shoe leather). I thought about blending some of the Tarrago #15 with some Black (Saphir) Cream to try to get the color where I needed it to be. But it turned out the Black (Saphir) Cream did a pretty good job by itself. It filled the cracks darkly but not so much that they stood out against the gray of the leather. So I ended-up returning the Tarrago #15.Tarrago Cream appears to enjoy the reputation of being the best shoe cream product, other than Saphir. They are both owned by the same company, btw, but they each build their own historical formulations in their own historical factories, Tarrago in Spain, Saphir in France. With Tarrago Cream you have to be OK with it being water-based (instead of solvent-based). Water-based puts a limit upon how much pigment the cream can suspend; solvent-based creams can suspend more pigment.On the upside, Tarrago seems to have the widest palette of colors among all the major shoe creams. However I do see other reviewers here also saying that the Tarrago color they get in the glass jar is off from what they expected it to be from looking at the name and the color pallete.
