How Are Your Varsity Red/Black 6's Holding Up?

I answered in the other thread like this. Anyway the upper still looks nice, but the bottom is kind of yellowed because I stopped cleaning the soles after every wear. I still want another pair trying to find one in my city under retail.

I've only worn mine once inside and once outdoors. Still looking fresh. I'm having a hard time deciding if I want to sell them, because I got the pack, or just keep them and rock them a little more.

Lets ask this question around 7 months from now and see where are answers are because my Carmines started to yellow a bit after the first full yr...

Haven't even looked at 'em since I bought 'em ; and not because I'm 'stocking' them. Just haven't gotten around to giving them attention. Hope they're not all yellow,lol.

I'll take a look at 'em a little later and post some pics.

I just wore mine today. It was hot as hell out here the Chi. Humid too.

I told you guys weeks ago that these shoes weren't crappy quality but everyone wants to stick next to the dork that says "jb sux, i kill it".

I've worn mine over and over, I lost track of how many times. If it wasn't for the soles being a bit yellowed, they could easily pass for dead stock. No creasing yet either. I'm very happy with my VI's. I'll wait to hear the verdict from others about the infrareds because Im wearing my customized v-reds until they can't be worn anymore.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^
I Sprayed mine with some repellent also........................It yellowed my soles a bit. Was not happy about that.
Other than that I've worn them countless times, no creases and the uppers still look new after a brushing.

I will never use chemical on my kicks, even leather stores tell you not to put anything on suede as far as water repellent or cleaner. Just pay attention to the weather and they would have been fine. I learned my lesson with $460 Gucci Loafers, they are rock hard

I also wiped the bottom of mine with sea glow before I wore them and the soles still look unworn after.

I haven't tried SeaGlow, I've read the instructions on the front page but it seems to be alot of work.
