Definitely understood the point, and I was goona use some concord 11 soles that I have laying around as donors. Don't think these are in as bad as condition as you believe, nothing is really that bad except for the separation imo or damaged PL, but that's beside the point. Simply put, I just see...
Dude you're such a jackass, it's hilarious. Literally SMH at people like you.
"This guy dont wanna hear it, hes already got it alllllll figured out"
Well obviously, I didn't ask for your two cents on the purchase. You're the one coming in here trying to spit advice on the purchase that I...
I understand what you're saying, but I see value in these. Also pretty hard to find another pair for that little price, low risk = low reward, it just comes with the territory. I do a bit of restoring as well and the way I see it is, instead of buying one or the other, I would just buy both and...
Sole can't be fixed per say, but like I said earlier, it can be swapped. What else can't be fixed? Perfecting the PL back to normal I guess, but I don't mind a little creasing. Everything else is doable. Painting the jumpman back to gold is going to be the hardest part which is why I asked about...
That's all I wanted, ya'll just wanted to give your opinion haha. Just needed a L/C which is what I asked for, thread turned into something else.
Could care less it's a DMP, it's just something worth restoring. Maybe I can turn that pair like yours for $30 and some elbow grease, who knows.
How is that sad? Cause I like to restore shoes and not waste my money? Alright baller, you're cool. You keep spending that retail + tax, I'll keep doin what I do.
It's funny cause I didn't even ask for your guys' opinion on the purchase, just the legitimacy of the shoe.
Keep it coming lulz.
Not when it's going for $30 and I already have all the materials except for the gold paint/dye.
You put an emphasis on "restore" like that's not what I'm goona do with it if I can get it. I just told you everything that had to be done to restore this shoe.
It's just so funny when people assume and don't even know what can be done. No one cares about hype, these can be fixed and that's all that matters. SMH at some of you guys.
These are easily restorable, the only thing that can't be done is the heel drag that destroyed part of the bottom sole and if I really wanted to, I could just swap the sole with a donor.
Just gotta reglue midsole, RIT the mesh, clean the midsole and salon care the sole, bleach laces. Leather...
