freshdunks44- i got a couple of things you can do before you decide on repainting. and thanks again to andfattoo and many others on here for answering some ofthese questions. before you repaint, you can use sea glow for the front toe boxes on the midnight navy vi's. it's a hard rubberized area that worksgreat for sea glow. if you're familiar with sea glowing any clear soles on any jordan's v, vi, xi, xvi, then you know what to do. if not, get some seaglow. order it online or if a store carries it around you area then pick it up local. use the synthetic 3m pad inside of the box or you have the option ofusing a very light sandpaper on the toeboxes. if sandpaper is what you use, sand it first. if you have the 3m pad, pour some of the sea glow into the pad andsand away around the toe boxes. do this for a little bit. get a paper towel and dab at the toe boxes. you should see the yellowing being absorbed into thepaper towel. repeat the process until you remove all of the yellow. i know this will work because i have a pair of midnight navy vi's that had the sameproblem. remember, if you have any jordan's or shoes with hard white rubber that isn't painted, you can use sea glow to remove yellowing.
