Our Story

Whitewater Shoe Shine was officially founded in 2021, following fifteen years of protecting and shining shoes and boots.

Nik was originally intrigued by finishing an old tin of Bear Grease in Grandpa's closet. Waterproofing his Sorels turned into polishing Air Force issue boots and dress shoes in college.

We provide the best shoe shine in Whitewater

Longer Lasting Footwear

 

We are dedicated to ensuring that our customers shoes and boots last as long as possible. Not only is this a major cost savings, but reduces the environmental cost of producing shoes.

A personalized service… for every shoe

 

Each pair of shoes serves a different purpose for you. We want to learn where you use them, how often they rotate in, and what special events you have coming up.
