@restoremysneakers any suggestions for six rings concords from 2008? ive worn them so yes they have slight yellowing and dullness in the mesh. and the icey is obviously not anymore, wondering if what can be done to illuminate the white mesh again. thanks.

[restoremysneakers]

@iotaken RIT Whitener and Brightener. However, I've never got it to work on my Concord's mesh.

where do you get e 6000 at?

[restoremysneakers]

@AhhboyyouGay I got mine at Walmart and Kmart.

Your lightning is fucking rediculous. It is absolutely perfect.

Thanks the tips, btw.

[restoremysneakers]

@KiNFRESHHH The lighting can still use some work. I've been trying to learn how to get the lighting right, but a lot of it is based on your lens and camera settings. Did you ever get that Nikon?

[IanV21]

would super glue be fine?

[ColeKeele]

@restoremysneakers can you use barge cement instead of E-6000?

I live in canada I dont know what a substitute is instead of it

You GUYS SHOULD DO A AIR JORDAN 6 RESTORE!!!!!!!!

E6000 works great for shoes that separated. Almost half the the side of one of my dress shoes separated and I just squeezed it into the gap, clamped it and left it to dry.

By the way, E6000 takes 24-48 hours to fully cure, depending on temperature, not 12. After 12 hours it would probably be cured enough for light use but I wouldn't do any exercising or anything stressful for the full 48.
