Best place to buy shoe wax - online or store?

I love these boots, but they're getting worn out. Haven't had a shoe shine in a while. Any recommendations? The kind of shoes are Blundstone 500...dark brown.

Wear them to the barber shop next time you get a haircut. Let the shine professional handle it.

Lincoln shoe polish is the best there is. Not sure where you can find. Maybe online or if you have a shoe repair place in your area check with them.

I wish we had a place like this is Oxford. When I was living in Memphis, I would go to Beale and they had a guy who did mine.

I have some Australian Redbacks just like those, used some stuff I found online at Amazon called Obenauf's Heavy Duty LP and they came out looking good. And waterproofed.

I typically like to buy my shoe polish in a store so I can open and look at it before I buy...I have bought some online before that was dried out...

Chain stores or limited to privately owned type places? I have been to several pretty good men's clothing stores, I mean good - not Joseph A Bank or Men's Warhorse - and not many carry wax. I don't understand why they don't carry conditioners and wax for expensive leather shoes.

I would go to a boot store. Personally I always liked to use mink oil.

first clean with a quality saddle soap, get it soapy, rinse, soapy rinse, then apply, rub in and let dry.
once dry you can use a brush to bring out the shine, then, next day put the lincoln on it, and likely a second coat.
feibings is good, amazon
next as was said, lincoln is really nice wax
and if you need to see the stuff, find an old time shoe repair shop...they usually got the good stuff there.

I typically just check dillards or somewhere like that...they always have a rack of it somewhere...
now, if you are looking for something to use on work boots, I would probably recommend somewhere that sells that kind of thing...
