Shrinaji always wore shining black leather shoes. The secret of his immaculately polished black shoes was the use of Cherry Boot Polish. People were so impressed by his impeccably polished shoes that they would turn and stare at them even after he had walked past them on the Mall. The black shoes shone out even more beautifully when combined with the white woollen chooridars he wore above them.

Cherry Blossom was the first shoe polish produced in the United Kingdom over 115 years ago, and is the only one still produced in the UK today. Cherry Blossom boot polish was created in Chiswick, UK, by brothers Charles and Dan Mason in 1906, launching the first UK-manufactured shoe polish to address issues with transfer onto clothing. The brand became globally popular, especially in India during the British Raj, as a symbol of respectability and duty. It has remained a significant and reliable brand, continually evolving while maintaining its British heritage. The polish was designed to last through the day without transferring onto clothing so it become very popular. In India, Cherry Blossom became an almost ubiquitous brand, a favored choice among the working class and a part of the national culture and its still the favorite brand.
