Here I have a pair of air jordan retro 5 shoes and I wanted to clean the back of the tongue to the shoe. It's a yellow inside . Here is a pic of the inside tongue. http://i264.photobucket.com/albums/ii163/jarod122/image-14.jpg. I'm unsure of how to clean this and as you see up against the tag " air jordan " is not as bad as the rest of the thonge. More as if the dirt or jean rubbing didnt touch it. Thanks if you can help me

I've been wanting to restore the icy soles on my  5s, and my 11s but I live in an apartment complex and live in the back areas of the complex so the sun doesn't shine in my section, is there any other way to restore the icy soles without using the sun? or is there a substitution I can do instead of the sun?
 
Hey all. Im trying to restore some jordan 4s from 1999. Im trying to remove the old glue of the donor sole so i can reglue it. I cant reglue it without gettin that old stuff off. Can abyone tell me how to remove the factory glue thts layered on the midsole?? Just scrape it? Sandpaper??

I have a pair of 2000 white/metallic silver Jordan 5s. With the rumored 2015 retro of these, would it be worth it to do a midsole swap if they're kinda beat up?
 
Anyone have any idea what colors of Angelus paint to mix to get metallic platinum to repaint the midsole of a pair of Johnny Kilroy 9s?
