What's the difference between tin polishes?

Not all shoe polishes are created equal! Whether you're after a quick shine, deep nourishment, or next-level gloss, choosing the right one matters. Here's a quick guide to the tin polishes available from Tedd's, and how to pick the best for your needs.

Tarrago Shoe Polish
The Classic - A solid all-rounder, like Kiwi but better.
This wax and solvent-based polish nourishes, restores colour, and adds shine while keeping the leather flexible.
Best for routine maintenance and touch-ups. (Don't overdo it - solvent-based formulas can dry leather out over time.)

Tarrago Premium Wax Polish
Kiwi Polish Replacement - A high-quality, water-based wax polish with long-lasting shine and moisture protection. It won't dry out leather, plus it's eco-friendly with natural carnauba and beeswax.
Best for school shoes or regular polishers who want an easy application with serious results.

Saphir Pate de Luxe (Blue & Gold Tin)
The Military Standard - Made with premium natural waxes, this polish is the go-to for a high-gloss, mirror-like shine. The Kiwi military trusts it - you should too.
Best for those who love that spit-shined look.

Saphir Medaille d'Or Pate de Luxe (Black Tin) 
The Professional's Choice - The Rolls Royce of shoe polish. Packed with the finest natural waxes and oils, it cleans, nourishes, protects and delivers an unbeatable shine.
Best for professionals and shoe aficionados looking for ultimate conditioning & shine

Tedd's Tip 
Unlike shoe cream, which absorbs into leather, wax polish builds up on the surface.
After 3-4 applications, clean your leather to prevent build-up, dryness and cracking.

No matter which polish you choose, regular care = longer-lasting shoes. Grab yours at Tedd's and keep your leather looking fresh!
