KIWI Shoe Care Kit Review & Giveaway

When I was little, almost every year I got a pair of pink and white oxford shoes for school each year. I loved them, but unfortunately after only wearing them for a few days, they were already getting scuff marks. Fortunately, my Mom would buy KIWI shoe polish so that way my shoes could stay looking pink and white all year long. KIWI has been around for over 100 years and is a brand I know and trust.

About KIWI (from their website)

"Passion for shoes," that’s what KIWI is all about.
We know that shoes are a key part of personal grooming, and therefore a reflection of who we are to the outside world. We also understand that shoes can be expensive and that keeping them in good repair is a better means of extending the life of your favorite pair of shoes.


KIWI, caring for shoes since 1906.
I was thrilled when I had the opportunity to review a KIWI Shoe Care Kit which included a variety of KIWI products. In the shoe care kit I received:
KIWI Suede & Nubuck Protector: effectively removes dust and dirt from all types of Suede & Nubuck leathers. Additionally, this special formula conditions and softens leather to restore its natural surface texture.

•KIWI Laces: Whether you want flat laces, oval, round, black, white, brown, cord or leather, KIWI selection will have the length and style for which you're looking.

KIWI Express Shine Sponge: clear shine liquid for a fresh shine every time. Color in sponge provides a hint of color. No mess. No buffing.

•KIWI Fast Acting Cleaner: is ideal for restoring the appearance of newer or lightly soiled sport shoes in just minutes. Fast acting foam breaks down quickly as it lifts dirt and stains. No messy residue. Dries in less than 10 minutes. Ideal for use on all smooth leather sport shoes.

•KIWI Protect-all: provides water and stain protection, while still allowing leather and fabrics to breathe. Water and stains stay on the surface, where they can easily be wiped away. It also repels water and stains from hats, jackets, raincoats, skiing wear and other clothing. For use on all dry clean only material. Good for all colors of leather and fabric.


We were really excited to try out the KIWI shoe care kit. My husband decided to polish two pairs of his shoes. First, we polished his dress shoes.

AFTER

Next we polished his white tennis shoes:

AFTER

As you can see, the KIWI shoe products make these shoes look new! The products were easy to use and worked great. The protectors were great to use as well and I feel like they are doing a great job at protecting the shoes. The KIWI products will help our shoes last longer We loved the products and I highly recommend KIWI Shoe Care Products for all your shoe care needs!
