What is a Shoe Shine Cloth?
A shoe shine cloth is an extremely soft cloth which is used at the end of the shoe shining process to buff the shoe to a high shine. Professional polishers sometimes prefer to use a shoe buffer, an electric machine with a soft head which rubs the shoe in the same way a shoe shine cloth would. However, people who do not feel like spending a lot of money on a shoe buffer, a shoe shine cloth can be a good happy medium, providing the desired gleaming finish without the expense. If you’ve ever had your shoes shined on the street, it’s highly probable that a shoe shine cloth was involved.
