Is there somewhere in BR I can go sit and get a quality refinish/shine on a 10 year old pair of boots?

I'm almost at a loss for words other than doesn't anybody still do things for themselves anymore.

Shining shoes is a very easy task----a can of color matching shoe polish, a soft brush to remove the polish once it dries a bit and a soft cloth to really get that shine working after the brush work.

I mean I agree with the premise, but there have been professional shoe shiners since the 1700s.

I get it. And I’m normally a “do it yourselfer” but in this case it’s a 1 time thing and I don’t mind paying someone for quality work

Great work
This is the correct answer baw. Go see Darren at Edgewood and let him get your shine on. Bring a treat for Penny and you'll have a friend for life.

A little shoe-shine boy, he never gets low-down
But he's got the dirtiest job in town
Bending low at the peoples' feet
On a windy corner of a dirty street

Well, I asked him while she shined my shoes
How'd he keep from getting the blues
He grinned as he raised his little head
He popped a shoe-shine rag, and then he said......
