Shinola?




This shop has been on my radar for some time now. Art, antiques, funk...all right up my alley! The name "shinola" has intrigued me though, so I thought I'd look it up to see what it means.

It seems that shinola was a brand of wax shoe polish available in the 1920's. Shinola is also used in a phrase that I can't believe I'm not familiar with: "You don't know shit from shinola!". Apparently, it means much the same as "You don't know your ass from your elbow!"

ANYWAY...their shop is located at 19 Mohawk Drive in Greenville.
