The wife got some crappy Morrison's own brand stuff that isn't cutting it on my Loakes.
What's the go-to polish for posh shoes?

Cheap naphtha or turpentine based polishes like Kiwi dry out and do not nourish the leather, use shoe cream made by Woly or Sapphir, that's what all the real shoemakers recommend (trickers/Cheaney etc) their own brand stuff is usually made by either of those 2.
