I don't wear them more than twice a month, and I brush the soles with soap and water before I put them back in the box.

Ahh, that sucks bro. I didn't actually use natural sunlight. Here was my setup:

Cost me $25, no heat, no separation. 6500K CFL's inside of two clip-on lamps.

yellow on a clear sole is something that you just have to deal with b...i really want a pair of the white anniv. 11s and SJs too but this is what you have to deal with.

It's going to happen regardless. I wore my 00's maybe five times, and cleaned the soles after each wear. Regardless of how careful you are when storing them, unless they are in a temperature and moisture controlled environment, they are going to yellow. That being said, you can just sea glow them back to life...

....and finally

 @ JB.....boo!! Least the CG's sole was better. Smh @ JB.
Think I may have to un-ds these soon. Never thought it be this bad, just wanted to actually rock them in the future with my kid, but guess that's out of the picture for now.
