Boot and shoe care products. If you're lucky, Target or whatever might carry one or two tins of medicre Kiwi shoe polish and maybe one type of leather conditioner. I remember having better selection at just the grocery store and being spoiled for options at any of the 4 or 5 proper shoe stores that used to be in every neighborhood.
Marks or any cobbler will have those.
The closest shoe repair place to me is 60 miles away these days 😔 It's not like I live in a small town, either! I remember when there was one in every second or third strip mall. It's not like it's tricky to order a bottle of Obenauf's online, but I miss being able to just be like, "I better swing off at this random place to pick some up while I'm thinking about it."
