HELP WITH THESE RESTORATIONS!!!

[certified811]

I just went to DxC & got a bang for my buck with a couple of kicks. Problem: they're all pretty messed up. Soultion: little T.L.C. (Tender Love & Cash) & some help from the Niketalk members

First pair: 2001 Infrared 6's
Problems: Suede chipping, yellowing, minor cracking, previously reglued by former owner
My solution: Seaglow the soles, repaint the suede chipping with a black marker, same for the Infrared on the sides.
Pics:




Any suggestions on these? Help is always appreciated

Next: OG Royal Blue Foamposites

Problems: Yellowing, minor seperation, suede chipping, foam chipping
My solution: Seaglow for the soles, blue marker for the foam, black marker for the suede chipping, regluing for the sole
Pics:




And now for the behemoth: 1999 White Cement 4's
 
Problem: More cracks showing than a porno, creasing, dirt, the whole 9
Solution: Sole swap with a pair of White Cement Dub Zeros
Bigger Problem: HOW DO I SOLE SWAP?!/1?!

 

If anyone can tell me how to remove the sole on the Dub Zero's and place it on the White Cement's will gladly be appreciated

THANKS IN ADVANCE!!

and i'm sorry but those white cements are done for. the time it's going to take and the money wasted on the sole swapping of the dub zeroes could've been dedicated to doing some 'bay hunting, but that's just me. And I'm sorry man but markers aren't going to change anything

and and and there's a thread for this

how much did all 3 shoes run you?

I would not even feel comfortable walking around with these sneakers in my own house.
