I won't throw any leather products in the washer, especially in the dryer, unless the overall shape is of no concern.
What I'd recommend is the good ol soap bucket-brush combo..
step 1 - scrub that ish down with soapy water,
step 2 - scrub down with water
step 3 - add odor eliminating agents inside the shoe
step 4 - leave out in the sun to dry up all that nastiness.
hope that helps.

Put some baking soda and dryer sheets inside of them. That should get rid of the stench.

Put them in a large Ziploc and place then in your freezer for a couple hours

Is it safe to use 3M scotch guard on jordan 29s before wearing? I have the white pair from gift of flight pack on the way. Since the upper isn't leather and more fabric... wouldn't that help keep the white areas from fading?

no experience with scotchgard, but i would suggest the foot locker water repellant, or the jason markk repel.

First wear and my carmine 6s are already creased.. I wonder if it's because it fits .5 size bigger so theres more space which leaves more room for creasing. Does anyone know how to uncrease the Carmine's

I had gotten paint on my 9's before and I used Angelus deglazer which I'm 99% sure is just acetone but watered down so I recommend the angelus deglazer
Also get a smaller brush and don't glob the paint on like that, even if you taped the shoes right the midsole shouldn't be that choppy. 4-5 thin coats > 1 thick coat the rule for painting

I cant tell like that cause tangerine matched till I put it on the shoe, Do you think the regular orange is brighter? Im now applying glazer Ill do this till it brightens

Cannot find a place to ask for advice on Lebrons. I just cleaned a slight scuff on the Lebron 8 V2 Xmas. The scuff was on the patent leather toe guard. I use Non-acetone Nail polish remover from Walmart and applied it. It removed the scuff but there a rough texture and slight blemish. You cannot really tell but the texture is grainy-like. Any suggestions?

Seems like every shoe I wear, the insole print always wears off too early. As early as 2 days after wear. How do I fix this?

If youre not planning on selling them, just put some clear tape over it. If you're unsure if you're going to sell them or not get some seran wrap and make a small square that will fit over it and tape the sides down.

Does anyone know where to find Safety Orange paint?
I tried cleaning a weird stain with Easy Cleaner. Ended up taking off paint. Now theres a light spot on the left toe box.
