Please refrain from using the words jordan and Balenciaga in the same paragraph. The are not nor will they ever be on the same level.Yeah I can deal with scuffs lol but I didn't expect when I touch them with water and a rag the dye would come off. You're not looking at a scuff , your looking at alot of the actual dye has came off. That doesn't even happen with my Jordan's lol but thanks for the advice anyway
I have experienced it with all colors in my experience, especially the more supple leathers like lambskin and goatskin. I regularly clean/leather condition my shoes and there is usually always a slight trace of the leather dye that comes off. Red is always a tricky color though even in RTW items as they tend to bleed more that others. It is difficult to tell from your picture, but was the scuff on the leather just above the sole near the toe box? If it was on the leather try using a microfiber and a leather conditioner (Try it on an inconspicuous place first) with little pressure to see if you can blend the area to make it less noticeable.Mannnnn I just want to know does the whole dye rubbing all happen to everybody/anybody else lol. Didn't happen to either of my othe repairs found it strange it happen to my Pavots.
My regimen involves using an all-purpose cleaner diluted down, typically at least 2:1 sometimes more depending on the material. I use a warm damp microfiber that is wrung out (not dripping wet and not to dry) and I spray a few sprays the all-purpose cleaner directly onto the microfiber. My reason for doing this is to not spray it on the leather or suede. Then I start cleaning the soles directly with the microfiber. As the microfiber gets soiled, simply repeat the process. The areas that have tougher grime that will not come out of the textured areas I use an old toothbrush to scrub the sole. If you are unsure about the all-purpose cleaner you could always purchase the Jason Markk kit, however it involves the same labor.Anybody know how to clean the midsole on these?

Yeah, seriously, they're sneakers. They are going get scuffs,scratches, etc. If you can't deal then don't buy 600 dollar sneakers. lol
You bet! I have had great success with the Jason Markk products. I am sure you will like them.Thanks Nicholas! I'll try that. Yeah I was contemplating buying the Jason Markk stuff, probably will...

I reread the post and it didn't say they were messed up when he took them out of the box.So the guy bought a pair of shoes for 600, they where scratch up right out of the box and when he try to clean it, the color came off and he got no reason to be upset?? You make no sense.
That reflect is sick. I've seen low top replicas with that python print on a few sites. They are probably reflective as well.The reflect on these are crazy, wish they used a different model though (triple straps or hi top replicas) not a fan of the space age strap or whatever
Mr. Clean Magic Eraser...Thank me later.

Or rubbing alcohol, that is my go to for white soles and it usually works.
Question to all of you why do you think some Maison Martin Margiela styles are absurdly high in price? Yet, you will see almost every style when the season ends for 50% off? I wanted those Python Print Strap 3M sneakers but changed my mind considering the price is a little eh but still unsure. Thinking about other shoes I want I don't think the price is worth it.
