Comeback idea

A premium leather care line of boot wax, polishes and cleaners for footwear, bags and belts.

The write-up

GorillaWax packs a whole shoe-shine kit into two playful words, and it's ready for a second act. People are rediscovering well-kept leather boots and bags, and a bold, memorable name makes a care kit easy to gift and easy to remember. It's up for a fresh start, and here's how you'd relaunch it: a small range of boot wax, leather creams and cleaners sold in gift-ready tins, ordered from gorillawaxshop.com.
