Executive Shine

Munch is the best. Even though she lost her voice today, still a great smile, attitude, and shine!

Excellent shoe shine. Period. End of story. My old leather boots now look like they just came out of the box. The only downside is when I asked before hand how much they say, «whatever it is worth to you». This is kinda confusing considering I don’t get shoeshines all that much but I left ten and she didn’t seem very happy. Oh well, maybe I’m a bad person.

Best shoe shine I have ever gotten. Mom in terminal B revived my old shoes better than I could have imagined. Staff really knows what they are doing and take the time to do it right. A+ shoe shine and A+ customer service. FYI they have a pay-​what-​you-​want business model.

What a great experience! Darwin is just about the best shoe shine I have ever met, very personable, perfect attitude, and a true master at his craft. You need to visit him!

My hubby’s scruffy Merrill’s were transformed into smooth gleaming shoes that you could almost see your self in! She used some sort of torch to really get at the layers of dirt and smudges. That was four days ago and his shoes still look highly polished in spite of sightseeing around Reykjavik. There is not set fee for the shoe shine instead you pay what you think your looking-​new calcos are worth. Professional, friendly, awesome service. Located inside the Denver International Airport. Highly recommend it!

This has to be by far the best shoe shine stand I’ve ever visited. The staff is courteous and friendly and they really know what they are doing. Whenever I’m in Denver, I come here.

My experience was really the best shine and customer service I have had across this country. Ms. Vegas was amazing made me feel like family. She made three pairs of shoes look like new, wish I could have traveled with more pairs. Denise further went above and beyond helping me pack the shoes back up. If you have to travel through Denver, make it a priority to stop at the Executive shoe shine booth. Best service e in the country.

I don’t get my shoes shined anywhere else anymore. I have a pair of shoes I thought was throwing out two years ago. Just got them shined by Alex and they look better than new.

Executive shine did a fantastic job! They went above and beyond to offer 5-​star customer service. If there was a 6^th star, I’d give it to them. I will continue to sing their praises to the world!

The best airport shine I’ve ever had. I make a point to get through security early so I can give these guys a solid 15 – 20 mins to work their magic. I get a shine here every time I’m in Denver to fly. Worth every penny.

I was a shoe shine virgin and always insisted on shining shoes on my own, until now. During my nearly three hour layover at Denver International Airport, I ate, I drank coffee, I charged phone and watched YouTube to my heart’s content and I still had about 30 minutes to spare. What to do…
On my way to my gate, I saw Executive Shine and since I was en route to a business conference, I figured why not see what the pros can do to my shoes. I’m glad I «stood in line for a shine» because the guys and gals at Executive Shine do great work!
I actually got the shine gal, Ceci. She was friendly, asked questions and consulted which shade I wanted to shine my shoes (brown or corduroy — be corduroy has a reddish tint). We engaged in small talk during the short time I was there and it didn’t seem like she was rushing, even though there was a line of 5 people waiting for the 5 shiners to help.
Note — payment is based on what you feel like — I’d say anywhere from $ 10 –20. Good money spent to make a good impression!

I travel more than enough and one of the perks that I convince myself I deserve is a shoe shine in the airport if they have one. It’s a dying breed, it seems, and Denver airport has one of the best. There are always a number of chairs open no matter what time of day I’m connecting through Denver, and I’ve found that it doesn’t really matter at all who you get — they all do an excellent job, with saddle soap cleaning or a conditioner before, the colored wax application, spit (water) buffing, then a second wax application and a final spit buff. The edges of your heels and soles are cleaned and colored and you never leave with dirty heels!

The best shoe-​shine experience I ever had thanks to Guillermo, Tina and Hassan. They are friendly, caring and professional. They even let you pay what you want and I didn’t mind paying $ 20 because it was well worth it.

Great shine and friendly staff. There’s just something about getting a nice shoe shine, and these guys do it right. Oh by the way, the leather chairs are incredibly comfortable too!

It is a necessity for my shoes and my sanity to stop here when traveling for work! There is something very therapeutic about getting my shoes shined. And let’s face it, they look awesome when they are done!!! The staff is always friendly and knows what they are doing. I will see you guys on my next business trip!!!

You know how someone says when they look someone over from head to toe? It’s absolutely true when it comes to a business meeting. Everything from the way you style your hair, the clothes you wear, down to the shoes is judged by the other party to determine the leverage they may have over you. With that said, this place will absolutely help you get the leg up on the competition whether you’re negotiating a business deal or a job interview.
The service is superb. They thoroughly shine your shoes till they’re like new. I also love that they check with you on time beforehand as a good shine takes a bit of time (roughly 10 mins), to make sure that you will make your flight. I even make my connecting flights through Denver if I’m on business because of this place. Even though they don’t specify pricing, I usually give $ 20 for a great service, more if it’s exceptional.
Do yourself a favor, budget another 15 minutes for this place if you’re flying through DIA on business and get your shoes done.

I decided to put the first shine on my new boots during my layover at Denver airport. A lady named Tara helped me and asked if I had time or was in a hurry. I said I have time. So we chatted during the 20 min while she went through multiple layers of conditioner and waxes n polish. They came out looking awesome. I asked how much and she said whatever I felt it was worth. I gave her $ 20.
It was a very relaxing experience I will do again. Thanks Tara. And good luck with school.

Getting your shoes shined for men is like getting a pedicure for girls.
Flight was delayed, so I decided to get my shoes shined. My shoes looked like I had been walking through a dust field.
There are no set prices here, so just pay what you believe you should. After 10 minutes, the gentleman shined and buffed my shoes so well that I literally could see my face in them.

I had always noticed this shoe shine spot was crowded but never bothered to stop for a shine. But one early morning, after learning my flight was delayed, I wandered over to the shiner in A Concourse and had a seat.
A professional gentleman named Fred took over, and proceeded to give me the best shine possible (well I mean my shoes, not me). Words don’t even do it justice. Prior to sitting down, my black dress shoes looked like they had been brushed by a melting Hershey bar. But Fred went to work, shining, lathering, using some flame thingy (I kid you not), then buffing the living H _​_​_​out of them!
The result? A shine better than any I was every able to produce in the military. Many eons ago…
The price? They leave it up to the customer. I made sure he was well taken care of.
And the result? I had meetings in Kansas City and Minneapolis over the next two days. The shine remained brilliantly bright throughout. I’m back home in CO now, and the shine remains.
Make it a point to get here early and get a shine. It’s better than anything you could do yourself!

Every time I travel through DIA I put on a pair of shoes that need a shine and head over to one of the Executive Shine stands that’s in each of the concourses. They’re run by a fine group of people. And they’ve recently instituted a policy where you just pay them whatever you want. (No, really!). My guess is that they end up making more that way.
About the shine process they use: Seems to me that 2 things have take over the shine industry during the last 20 years. First, now everyone uses disposable latex gloves to apply the polish. It’s a great idea because they can work the polish into the leather better that way, and it’s probably environmentally safer for the workers not to have to be rubbing that stuff over their hands. Second, they quickly butane torch the polish into the shoe after having applied it. My guess is that that opens the pores in the leather and allows a deeper saturation of the polish, as well as priming the surface for the rag gloss.
Bottom line is that they do a great job and it’s really fun having a little ritual like that at the airport. The workers are honed conversationalists and I usually get into exceptional discussions with them.
The only reason they’re not getting 5 stars? ‘Cause sometimes they don’t finish the shoes properly and you get some excess polish left on the seams that then rubs off on things like your mother’s carpet when you go for a visit. Hmmmmm. Not a nice hello present to leave someone. Next time, I’ll remind them about that issue, and look forward to a stain free 5 star shine.
