Their brilliant glitter scarce
outrivals' the polish you can put
on a Murzluff shoo. Good leather,
well-tanned leather, that's the
reason. It does more than shine
it wears, it fits, it "feels good"
whether ou walk across the
street or ucrcss the continent.
It's a shiner, a stayer, a soother.
Costs monoy ? Of course not
as much as you'd think, though.
