Welcome to our shoe and leather care products website. It is brought to you by Michael and Janet Cartwright, we were owners of The Cobbler's Corner, a shoe repair and leather shop in Old Saybrook, CT. from 1978 until 2000.

When we were closing our shop after being in business for 22 years we realized that the number of shops providing these goods are dwindling fast in this country. We thought you might appreciate having them supplied along with some guidance on how to use them via the internet. That was the beginning of shoeshinekit.com. opening in Feb. 2000. The Shoe Shine Kit is run by Janet but Michael is a constant and expert consultant.

When you start moving through the site you will find that some of the sections are for items that are for sale and other sections offer you instructions on how to use them to keep your shoes and leather goods looking good and make them last longer.

In February 2008 Michael opened a new "The Cobbler's Corner" Shoe Repair Shop and Pedorthic Center at 246 East Main Street, Clinton CT. That shop has recently closed and Michael has retired.

MESSAGE TO OUR CANADIAN CUSTOMERS: We have just recently opened our site to accept orders online from Canada. I am experimenting with an estimated shipping charge that will appear on your order form. If it is way high or way low it will be adjusted. If you have any questions please email us. As in the past, the customer is responsible for any taxes, brokerage or customs fees in your country. As stated in the customs laws the custom value is the transaction value of the items in US Dollars. I also read that if your order is $20.00 or less (Canadian Dollars) it is Duty -and/or tax free. Flammable liquids and aerosol cans cannot be mailed to Canada. Welcome to our store.



Orders to Military Post Offices are always sent Priority Mail, no aerosol cans or flammable liquids can be mailed. Alaska and HI also by Priority Mail.

UPS GROUND SHIPPING TIMETABLE:





UPS Express Shipping is also available by calling 1-860-399-4726 Monday-Friday 9:00AM to 4:00PM EST. Not all of our products can be sent express because some items cannot be put on an airplane such as flammable liquids and aerosol spray cans.

UPS cannot deliver to P.O. Boxes but if your order can be sent Parcel post we will ship. Mailing restrictions apply.

Thank you for visiting our site and we hope to hear from you soon. Janet and Michael
