Man I get that shoes are meant to be worn but I have never owned a pair of Js that 5+ years later didnt still have that crisp new look to em. Makes me sad that people just trash their kicks like that.
@@RESHOEVN8R me personally, I wear my shoes but I do so with respect. I have an all white pair of Js that I have even ventured out to clubs in and gotten intoxicated and danced in that are almost as clean and crisp as the day I got them 5 years ago. I clean and treat my kicks all the time.
I'm amazed how ppl get their shoes so dirty and damaged(esp. Jordans) None of my shoes (including older ones) don't look trashed. Anyway, Vick does amazing restorations and customs!!!
I stood in line 8 hours overnight for these when they dropped. Still have mine but I will say it's up there with obsidians/playoff 12s as the most difficult Jordan to keep clean. Still classics though
Everytime Vick cleans the inside of these grimy kicks with no gloves I have an anxiety attack..lol...You are however the nicest at bringing these kicks back to life...been waiting on the cement 4's to appear...
How would you repaint the Nike air backstabs on these? Mine is a little discolored and they also have a more matte finish to them and I don’t know how to go about it
RESHOEVN8R I support you guys, because your products are fire! Can’t wait for Reshoevn8r to supply some of the Sneaker stores in Switzerland. We miss a good shoe tree with interchangeable size
Hey Vick what type of light box do you use to brighten the sole??? Usually I just go outside and leave them in the sun but: 1. I live in Oregon and there’s never any sun. 2. I want to stop doing this for risk of damage to the leather and paint. Thanks!!!!!
you could also use that thin pin stripeing tape that u can turn and make circles or whatever u want it would work perfect on that top lil ledge of the uppers n u can shape the tape however u want turn however u want
is there a way to use less paint and still get a good result to the original cement color. I am currently trying to do a midsole repaint on mine but is there a way to use less colors because it got kinda pricy. Like just use one or two greys but i dont know. if you could lend me some help and respond that would be great.
Don't use regular paint it won't adhere to the midsole correctly. I suggest: 1. Buy Angelus Flat Black Paint, and Angelus Flat White Paint 2. Buy an Angular Brush 3. Buy Masking Tape 4. Buy Krylon Matte Finish (Clear) 5. Buy a heat gun 6. Mask off the areas you don't want to get paint on 7. Use Leather Preparer and Deglazer to prep your midsoles for painting 8. Lay down a coat of white paint a few times, drying with the heat gun after each coat. 9. Tape off the white area of the midsole, and then lay several black coats, drying after each coat with a heat gun 10. Apply Krylon Matte finisher after shaking it vigorously for 2 minutes. Several light coats. Wait a few hours for it to dry. Wait 24 more hours, and they then are ready for wear
Hey Vick I have a pair of 2014 concord lows that are very yellowed should I use salon care 40 or another product. I don’t need them to be completely icey but less yellowing would be great.
Smart way to get more sales on paints but all you really need to make that grey is black and white. Love the content though I been watching Vick for a few years, keep it up
Vick I'm a big fan of these vids. I'm not sure if you've been asked this before but why don't you use blue painter's tape when you tape stuff off? Does the regular masking tape leave residue on the shoe?
