TRG Shoe Cream 171 Brandy 50ml – Nourishing Leather Colour Cream

Description

TRG Shoe Cream 171 Brandy 50ml – a warm reddish-tan for brandy and cognac leather shoes and boots.

TRG Brandy Shoe Cream is a nourishing, wax-based colour cream in a handy 50ml jar that does two jobs at once: it feeds your smooth leather and refreshes its colour. Made with natural beeswax and a generous dose of rich pigment, this brandy cream sinks into the leather to stop it drying out, guards against cracking, and tops up the colour that inevitably fades with everyday wear. It is the shade I reach for when I am caring for brandy-toned brogues, cognac boots, reddish-tan loafers and the warm mid-brown leather with a hint of red.

I personally recommend keeping a jar of Brandy shoe cream in your kit if you own brandy-toned leather. A thin layer every few weeks is all it takes to keep the colour looking rich and even. Because the cream is pigmented rather than clear, it does far more than a neutral polish: it evens out sun-bleached patches, blends in light scuffs and leaves a soft, healthy sheen that never looks greasy or plasticky. A little goes a long way, so a single 50ml jar lasts a good while.

Why choose brandy shoe cream?

• Deeply nourishes the leather – the beeswax formula feeds smooth leather, keeps it supple and helps prevent drying and cracking, so your shoes last longer.
• Restores the brandy colour – A warm brandy tan with a subtle red undertone that revives cognac and reddish-brown leather beautifully.
• Rich, long-lasting shine – buffs up to a warm, natural glow without any greasy residue, leaving your shoes looking cared for and smart.
• Excellent coverage – the pigments give great coverage on dull and worn areas, blending in scuffs and evening out patchy colour in a single application.
• Economical to use – you only need a small amount each time, so this 50ml jar keeps your leather looking its best for months.

How to use TRG Brandy Shoe Cream

1. Wipe away loose dirt and dust with a soft cloth or brush so the cream can absorb evenly.
2. Test the colour first: dab a little on a hidden spot, such as the inside of the tongue or heel, and check the shade matches before you go further.
3. Apply a small amount of cream with a clean cloth or applicator, working it into the leather in gentle circular movements.
4. Let it absorb for a few minutes so the pigments and waxes can settle into the leather.
5. Buff with a soft brush or polishing cloth to bring up an even shine. Repeat on any scuffed or faded areas for the best result.

Haico’s tip: build the colour up in thin layers rather than one thick coat. Two light applications give a more even, natural finish on brandy leather and dry far more quickly than a single heavy one.

Frequently asked questions

Is 171 Brandy the same as cognac?
They are close cousins. Brandy has a slightly warmer, redder undertone than a straight cognac, which is what makes it so flattering on rich tan leather. If your shoes are a truer orange-tan, my 149 Cognac may match better – test both on a hidden spot.

Will brandy shoe cream darken lighter tan shoes?
On pale tan leather, brandy will add warmth and a little depth because of its red undertone. If you want to keep a light shade exactly as it is, test on a hidden area first; if you want richer colour, this cream delivers it.
