I always bring back up shoes when i wear suede shoes or new kicks. nothing major, just a pair of slides or beaters.
 
there are people out there that buy shoes just to get them in hand to look at them then sell them

What was the cost of thermals at outlets? Or a good price to purchase at ... im trying to talk a seller down on them, just curious.

Havent followed a foam thread at all since re-release of stealths were scrapped

Thanks guys

$99-129.99

they may still be around.
 
I wasn't a huge fan of foams at first, but after purchasing these two... I'm on the hunt for more. Specifically, Oregon Ducks and Galaxy's
 
Not sure who said it, but it was mentioned that with solid color / non graphic foams, the color went all the way thru and thus acetone wouldn't do anything. I also thought this to be true, but apparently we're wrong. a guy on facebook took acetone to his purple suns ones and out popped the white...

hmmm guess nike did change how they made foams. maybe the gloss foams are just painted because im pretty sure the matte foams aren't. taking acetone to stealths wouldn't yield anything like what we are seeing.

also, maybe what I said wasn't what I meant meaning there wouldn't be a nice, glossy, clean finish under every non-painted foam. I think you can take the finish off of any foam that's not matte like the stealths since at the end of the day, the color cant be stripped off.

shoes like the suns, metallic reds, sport royals all have that painted finish so its not surprising that you can strip them down to a white base.

Man..elbow greese for removing the STD off the thermals aint no joke.

It indeed took 2.5 hours, 5 gloves, 10 q-tips, and half a bag of cotton balls for ONE shoe.

I would suggest using a tooth brush with the acetone as it breaks through the membrane easier than cotton.

Lol it's not that bad man. Just watch a movie or something while you do it. My second shoe was faster than my first shoe.

I did multiple sessions tho.
1. Get the main print off while not worrying too much about the edges.
2. Go through and get the edges or as much as you can.
3. Wait a day or so and look over the shoes and get whatever debris that remains.
