Shoeboat Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 I am fully aware that if I just wonder around Sukhumvit I might by chance see an enterprising pauper with a shoe shine kit. However I see these admirable hard workers on average two or three times a year which doesn't really help me if I need my shoes shined by Monday morning. Is there any fixed placed that does it as a service? Appreciated, SB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edwinchester Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 Buy a tin if Cherry Blossom and a nice couple of dusters and you have one less thing to worry about over the next four days. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeterSmiles Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 Now that you say, when i arrived here the first time you really had to kick them away because the would be shining your shoe wherever you sat down for a minute. The past years you hardly can find one anywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The past years you hardly can find one anywhere. I noticed that, too. They used to be a real pain at times and now you just don't see them anymore.

Jasun Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 You could try taking them into a shoe repair guy and having them done on their orbital buffer. There's one in the carpark level escalator foyer of the Emporium. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harrry Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 Yes they would even shine thongs....and I do not mean underwear. Actually they were one person raising money I did not mind supporting. They always worked hard to give a good shine and were friendly. Better than throwing money at people who do nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Okay, well if you're ever looking for a Mexican restaurant how about I suggest you buy some tacos and ground beef from Villa. How helpful would you find that? In minus figures I would imagine. Still, you have a point but the guys on the street that do it are professionals and they will make your shoes look like f****** mirrors - to quote Billy Batts.
