Damn feel for you bro. Its gonna be a little tough cleaning those. I have an old pair and I can't clean them for nothing, they just look like this pale black.Alright. A while back I told you guys how I totalled my car when I started fishtailing and flipped it after I slid across the road. When I got out of the wreckage I stepped into about 4 inches of mud. Anyway I cleaned it with a rag, soap and water.
Anyway IDK if the upper can get any better than this. (didnt take any before pics). I am just so mad because these are in my top 5.Well executed retro and I know these wont be done as well next time around.
Anyway what should I do about the midsole. Especially the stitching on the toebox

You'll have to apply it multiple times..
But after like 5 coats... The leather wil rly soften up and be alot nicer.
If its a super plastic-y leather like the varsity 4's from last year, it dosent work all that well

Whats the best way to clean the insole on a pair of Jordan 6 Lakers? I just bought a used pair and want to clean it out before wearing. Any help is much appreciated. The insole is glued down to the shoe. Should I pull it out and clean or just spray some febreeze?

If I pull the insoles out of my Jordan 6s for cleaning, would I affect the shoe in anyway? Its glued on pretty tight to the bottom and I'm scared to rip it out lol.

Clean it up as best as you can and then use angelus black suede dye darken the uppers and use angelus black leather paint on the midsoles. They'll look loads better. I didn't haven't used the dye on these yet but I have repainting them and they look great. Also, mine are the 2006 release if that makes a difference in anyway.

Sorry to pic quote but I'm on mobile.
I would. Dosent seem like much needs to be done other than deep cleaning the entire shoe and removing some creases.
