How to Restore Icy Soles on Jordan 11's

简介

Do you have a pair of Jordan 11s and you wish that the sole wasn't so yellow? If you want to remove some of the yellow from the soles of your Jordan's, follow this guide.

This specific guide uses the Jordan 11 model with the Icy blue soles but it can be applied to other athletic shoes that were previously white or light and have yellowed with use over time.

Be careful when doing the process because in the end you will need to leave the shoes in the sun with the solution on them. If it gets too much exposure the sole of the shoe may start to peel off. Be cautious and don't leave the shoes out too long because you can always repeat the process though the results may be slower, but the damage to the shoe is a lot harder to repair.
