How to Fix Damaged Suede | Air Jordan 6 Restoration

[@RESHOEVN8R]

You can use Sole Revive on the gray midsole of your Bred 4's. This however can not be used on the white painted midsole, because it can cause damage.

Update on my university 1s. I’ve never used water to clean the university 1, but they fade and look more Ashy over time. After using light coats of the Mink oil and brushing it in, it made the suede nice and lively again. Color was not faded and the suede movement was much more apparent. Thank you Reshoevn8r!

[@RESHOEVN8R]

Thank you for your support! We are so glad those results turned out great!

[@9erR3dd49]

Ty i actually have this pair in similar condition. These are gonna be my first restoration. This really helped. I'll be copping some products as well. Thanks again

[@RESHOEVN8R]

We'd love to see your progress and some before and after photos! Good luck!

[@michaelbowmanjr.9724]

I've been wanting this pair for a while now, but almost all the pairs I come across for a price I'm comfortable paying are in a similar condition... after watching you bring these back I feel a lot more confident about finally copping. Thanks for always sharing your tips and tricks brother ✌

[@RESHOEVN8R]

Cop them! Vick's got you covered with tips and tricks every Monday.

Keep up the good work Vick definitely motivating me on just cleaning my shoes 😎

[@scottflood2733]

This was an excellent restoration vid but you don’t need me to tell you that… Gatorade 6’s were always the more exotic color way to me… Vick my man you are the maestro of customs and restoration (no disrespect to the rest of the click y’all all absolutely do your thing 🔥) but there’s times where Vick shows how he’s built different in this community keep up the phenomenal work guys..and gals 🍻

It came out looking nice!🔥

[@Beskar181]

Yo Vick! Can you give us more insight? Like how can we properly dry the shoe after cleaning? How do you figure out what colors to mix and how do you test if you got it right or close enough (testing a hidden spot on the shoe or on another surface etc)? Any recommendations for creating our own UV box for icing soles? Etc

[@Codename-SubZero]

Always enjoy Vick restoring sneakers 💯 💪🏽

[@Alex68747]

Does the sole revive also work with yellow AF1 soles?

How many coats of paints did you use or you just did it once?

[@gstevens5108]

Can we get an updated video of this clean on a jordan Ferrari 14's??? I have a pair but i believe there may be a better way to clean them now then the last one you guys uploaded

[@RESHOEVN8R]

It's been quite a few years since we've cleaned that shoe, but you'd do it very similar to any other type of dark suede shoe. Always start with a Dry Suede Kit. You don't want to get suede wet unless you absolutely have to. If you do end up needing to use water and solution, it's important to NOT oversaturate the material. Anytime suede gets wet, there's always a chance of color bleeding or fading. Pat dry as you clean! You also need an even distribution of water/solution across the entire sneaker or you will end up with water spots.

[@gstevens5108]

with the passing time my new balance suede is fading gradually .its only couple of months old, how can i prevent the colour fading. does suede really fade colours in this short period of time?? or its just dirt and sands which overshadows the colour?.

[@stevenbenvin5976]

Vick - quick question. You didn't do it here, but when you apply Krylon matte to sneakers, how much do you usually put? You usually do it pretty quickly in your videos. Do you every cover anything (like if there is suede on the shoe, or cover the tongue or anything)?. Just bought a pair of beaters and need some help!

[@gabepante5850]

I’m not Vic but if you’re repainting a midsole with suede uppers, definitely tape off or cover the suede entirely before spraying the finisher on it. Or else it’ll get stiff and it’s hard to clean off. As for the amount, Vick said 1-2 coats with quick swipes in the same direction

[@stevenbenvin5976]

@@gabepante5850 awesome, thank you for the response!

[@danibles1648]

Hey broski I left my Jordan's out for a couple days and because I threw away all my food a rat went to town on the suede and chewed a hole in one of the soles. Can I send them in? You think black shoe goo is good enough on the sole for now until I find a donor?

[@RESHOEVN8R]

Currently we don't offer restoration services! We hope to soon. That would probably be a good fix until you can do a proper sole swap!

I heard water on suede is unnecessary and usually risky.. does it matter the type of suede or the state of the suede?? And wouldn’t it be smarter to clean the bottoms before soleglow??

[@RESHOEVN8R]

It does matter. Some colored suedes will bleed the color. It's always good to test a small area first.
