What up NT,

I have a pair of Jordan citrus 7's with paint cracking on the mountains, does anyone know how to fix this or where to get the right color of paint to match the citrus color on the shoe?
 
Nice work man love to see them!

Since u seem to do those a lot I got a random question for u..... Do u no if any soles from a Jordan say like a Jordan 4 for example have the same size and shape as another like say a 15, were u can mix n match them. Or do they all have there own shape and size?

1999 White Cement IV Midsole swap:

Hopefully you guys don't get tired of my Wc4 midsole swaps. I have more to come! For this pair, I've asked the client if I can make the midsole look more aged by adding an offwhite midsole. 

Enjoy. No before photos were taken sadly.

Where'd you get your donors? It seems that you have a lot of them lmao

Also, any tips to remove jean stains?

I've never done that type of swap. The shoe probably wouldn't line up very well to be honest.

I get my donors from other jordans that i see from craigslist or beaters.

You can use the Air Legends Cleaner to remove jean stains
 
Ahhh yea man that what I was thinking all the shapes and sizes would b diff.... The reason I asked is cause I thought of that prototype Jordan 9/10 which If memory serves me right had a 10 upset with a 9 sole

I see what you're talking about, but the reason why that worked is because the upper is specifically made to have the jordan 9 midsole so there will be changes from that prototype to the released version.

If you replicate the same thing, I am positive that the fitment won't work as well and the pods will overlap some areas of the upper that shouldn't be covered.

Thanx man I figured it Woodnt work but thought u wood b best to ask lol thanks very much for the info man
 
@johnandrew13 how sturdy are sole swaps? lol always wondered if there solid to wear daily or just occasionally
 
The better the technique/quality of work the more likely they are to last you. That being said, with the quality of Johns work I would think you'd be just fine wearing them whenever you'd like

On a black cement 3 repaint do you use the same matte finish for the white and black midsole. I've got the white finisher but didn't know if they made a black finisher or if the white just dries clear

I can only speak for myself as I don't know how others do their swaps. I've swapped both my 1999 Columbia and White Cement IV. Both are still standing very nicely! After continuous wear and tear, my only cosmetic flaw is paint cracking. It's funny how I've been told that you need to restitch the toecap or else it's going to seperate the toe. I didn't stitch my toe and it's as strong as ever. If having the stitching is needed, how come the jordan 6, 7, 8, 9, and so forth don't have stitching on the toe?

I've played ball in my columbias (which is a mistake because now they're dusty and scuffed the back portion of the midsole) and they weren't flapping around like my girls mouth when we argue. Still very solid

Do be careful on who you go to. Their swaps may not be as cut out as you see. That's why I do up close shots and do a video on my swaps in detail.
