I do, indeed. Now, fortunately, I don’t spend a lot of time outdoors getting them scuffed up. A single pair may only go the shop once a year - I do clean them and do light buffing myself, but leave the serious care to those professionals. Plus, all of mine are full brogue, so any shine gets lost in all the brogueing (my opinion). I just ask for clean and touch up.
