:::OFFICIAL SNEAKER CARE/MAINTENANCE POST::: (It's back!)

it was my cousin, I took his 01 Columbias & Concords to make up for it... never wanted to put hands on him so badly in 31 years.

I don't even know how it gets torn like that though... I'm impressed AND mad.
getting 01 columbias & concords for 2011 Cement 3's is a gain on your end. I know that's not the point, but if you look at it as that, you're winning. the cement 3's will need some touch up paint wise, and stitching the tongue back and detailing the toebox's elephant print
 
Does anyone else pop their toebox creases out with socks? One of my friends advised me against it due to it misshaping the toebox after wards, but I guess that's only if you stuff it too much beyond its natural shape. I'm currently using the reshoven8r shoe trees, which help somewhat, but don't fill the toebox enough, but actually do a good job at keeping the upper heels stiff and decreasing them more than the toebox.
 
NEED HELP!

Any ideas on how to repair/restore scuff marks and scratches. My Solars need to be touched up on back find where some of outer coating has rubbed off.

. Here's where I over aggressively scraped my midsole before my last repaint. Im getting ready to strip the the paint and try epoxy glue to fill in and re-smooth before I repaint. I just wanted some input on whether I should mess with it now or wait to do it down the road. You can't notice really on feet but I over analyze on my babies
 
What's up you guys? I have a question on a pair of Altitude 13s I'm restoring for a customer. They were beat to a pulp but I got them back to the best I could. The only thing I had trouble on was the air bubble. I thought they were fogged but as I looked closer it looked like it was dirt! Maybe in wrong but could anyone help a brotha out here? Any solutions? Thanks!!

I would try defogging it first, that doesn't seem to be dirty.
Anyone can tell me how to clean my CDP 7
Jason Markk , Reshoven8r , or any product safe for cleaning suede/nubuck with a suede brush.
Also can anyone tell me how to get these white again
Look at the earlier pages in the thread about RIT whitener.
 
Thanx dude!! Imma get to work on cleaning them this week just switched up my room and pulled them 2 out of the boxes and smh at what happened

It's inevitable man, especially if you smoke in the room or house in general. I keep all icy sole + white shoes in ziploc bags half way shut.
 
Do You Know Where/ Who I Could Get A Midsole From? This'll Be My First. And Will A Rep Midsole Work?
Look for a pair of low top 11s on ebay they're cheaper. And if you get a replica sole they won't have carbon fiber it'll be plastic so no it won't work
 
The picture below is while it was drying, after cleaning it with 'Reshoven8r' + Suede Brush. I have black marks on the sides of the tongues on my Raging Bull V's, I think it's from the the black part under the eyelets that sort of sits on top of the tongue..you can only see it if you pull the tongue out but still doesn't make sense how this even happened.

i stuff every one of my shoes with 1 pair of socks per shoe, i fold them together as one long sock and let it bring the toebox back to the original shape, just dont overstuff cuz that could misshape the shoe or damage it with the pressure on the toe.
