Cleaning pairs after each wear eventually becomes a PITA, especially when you have 80+ pairs of kicks. I used to do this with all my XI's in particular, and one day I just said F it and stopped. I got tired of the cleaning process, and it's basic. An old bar of soap, warm water, and rag to wash and dry the outsoles. It's not a magic or a mystery. I laugh every time people run to get all those stupid shoe cleaner products they overcharge for and you don't even have to waste your money on.

Preach.
Cats out here spending bread to clean they shoes has always been wild to me.
I literally use warm water and a rag whenever I feel like I gotta clean my shoes.
If that doesn't work, charge it to the game, and chalk it up as your shoes having character.

That's cool. I have no idea who that is. I never mentioned any type of sponsorships or influencers for that matter. I just recognize there is an entire market of products that exist and is completely unnecessary. Not to disparage any of those that use those products but I have been into shoes for over 30 years and have been able to keep my kicks clean before all of those products were even thought of and my kicks have held up fine. It's a waste of money imo on top of the ridiculous rising costs of shoes with lower quality.

So are Shoe Palace stores that raffled weeks ago when they thought the release date was 2-19-2022 re-raffling? Shoe Palace on some real shady crap.

Ok OG shoes could have the same issue than me.Wore OGs for the first time today and they do run much warmer than any other shoe I have, they aren’t nearly as comfy as the first retro run, they look amazing (to me). I was so stoked I had them on and was super happy they didn’t come unglued.

Also why are retailers charging $190, $200, and $210 for these Playoff 12s.
Forget release procedures hell Nike can't even get retailers to set the correct pricing!!!!

Looks like my size 9 on Goat is coming out to $272. Seems pretty tempting to an old man like me to be able to pay an extra $50 to avoid the circus this weekend

Well said my brother.
I also use a wet T-shirt, no soap or chemicals. If that doesn’t work I’m on to the next pair baby.

That's exactly how I feel at this point. Finishline/JD Sports used to be my go to, now it's damn near impossible to get in to their website on release.

Once you have so many shoes, it's almost impossible to get them dirty.

Any specific tutorial you recommend/steps to take once I purchase salon care 40? I know I’m going to need the sunlight. Probably need to wait a few months for that where I’m located.

People cry about QC and preach OGs but OGs probably had more issues than todays. We just loved the shoes before instead of the hype of today.Ok OG shoes could have the same issue than me.
