PATREON PREVIEW - Die, Workwear! - Shoe Shiners

Patreon Preview from Blamo! (https://patreon.com/blamo) It’s a new episode of Die, Workwear with Derek Guy and Peter Zottolo. A lot of guys who are into menswear nowadays get into the hobby through shoes — and with that, learning how to take care of their newly acquired purchases. Shoe shining, in particular, can be therapeutic for today's keyboard class. But historically, it was a rough trade taken up by orphans, newly arrived immigrants, and the most marginalized in society. Peter and Derek talk about the history of shoe shining, and how it moved from what was widely considered a lowly profession to now an elevated craft with global competitions and boutique French products. ** Listen to the entire episode on the Blamo!
