About Saphir

Saphir is one of the oldest still existing manufacturers of shoe care products in the world. In 1925 they won a gold medal at the famous retail event Foire de Paris for its high quality all natural shoe care products, and when they started producing these they were named Medaille d'Or 1925. Also today the base products are made to the same recipes.

Apart from these Medaille d'Or series has a bunch of other products, and it has become the number one choice for shoe lovers all around the world. In close collaboration with shoemakers and professional shoe shiners - and us at Skolyx - they continuously develop the range.
