When I used SG, it actually made my soles sticky if I didn't wipe the excess off. I just let them sit out longer in the sun so that it would dry completely. It took me a couple days though, Seattle sun... It works great though, turned my soles icy.

Yea the stickiness is the problem. They pick up dust and dirt which makes them slippery. I've used it on about 5 pair and although there was decent results it's just not worth it. And if you think your going to change piss yellow soles to icey you can forget it.

Depends how you apply it and what shoes you try to make icey...XI hard to make them icey again but V are not too bad at least in my experience

Use dish soap and scrub with a toothbrush, it should help bring the traction back

How Can I Clean The Hares?

 

[deewlay]

has anyone determined how to whiten the circled part (in red) of these jordan 3s? i've read to use a magic eraser,but b/c it's not the rubber on the toe of a shoe (it is a bit glossy compared to the toe rubber), i'm a bit worried....

thanks in advance.

the outline part.
(shoes in picture are not mine)
i have the same pair and that part isnt cleaning.
please PM me if you know the solution.

I use Jason Markk Cleaner
But a magic eraser would probably work also

Thanks man.. I've been using Armor All.

Does not work, scrubbed till my arm fell off. I thought i was going to have to post my pics up, but looks like you already did it for me.

Get a nubuck brush that comes with the eraser. apply that a few times and it should be good as new Chitown: what part of the hares

I live in the Philippines and I plan to keep most of my Js DS. Knowing that it is hot and humid out here, will the soles of my DS shoes crack after a whileeven if i just keep them in their respective boxes inside my cabinet? I dont want to risk using silica packs or any dehumidifier. Any advice guys? Peace!

No man in my experience I would use them lightly in a rotation as DS jordans tend to crumble on me on this hot and humid weather. I keep them in a darkwalk-in closet.
