Over the years I have tried and tested several different items, and I have compiled a list featuring some of my favourites. This can help you either create a starter kit or extend your current kit, We have included links to Amazon uk for ease of identification, but please remember all items are available from other retailers and in other countries. Further resources for bootblacking can be found on the sub-pages below this menu – Bootblack class videos, Bootblack History, my blog, and the world map of bootblacks!

Tongue Ties are a UK company who make wonderful additions to customise your boots. They have an impressive range of colours and printed leather patterns for you to choose from which will turn your boots from lace ups to zip ups, giving you much easier accessibility to your boots. And their blank lace inserts also work well if you need just a little bit extra width on your calf lacings. Choose from rainbow stripe pride inserts to any accent colour you may wish for!
