I want to contribute some other good sneaker cleaning methods. Mr. Clean Magic Erasers are incredible for spot cleans and touch ups in between full cleans.

Then for a full clean I recommend this:

20$ with shipping and totally worth it. Works on all surfaces too, including suede(use a toothbrush instead of the firm brush they provide you)

Is this still relevant for cleaning? (was posted back in 2013)

Now that I have a bunch of new kicks I want to try to keep them in good shape. Good YouTube vids showing some good methods?

I use the Jason Markk stuff and it seems to work pretty well. I did get the hog bristle brush along with the standard, as I have a few suede shoes and the softer bristles are better for those. Try using a barrier protect too, again Jason Markk have some or a lot of people recommend Crepe.

I would warn against mr clean erasers for anything with color since they are somewhat abrasive

Woah those are nice, I've never owned Diadora before.

Diadora have been on my watchlist lately. Those are real cool.

Adidas... Wutrudoing these are trash.

Looks like someone stepped in gum.

acohrs · May 30, 2017

TBF all sneaker companies are hit and miss, for every NMD racer and Pure Boost Raw, we get the OG PB, UB, and Iniki.

soultron · May 30, 2017

I'm really into these but it's only because it looks like they're taking obvious outsole design cues from the ASICS GEL-DS.

Yeah, not a fan.

Honestly, any NMD without a sock collar is a little off for me. It's why I don't like most of the R2's, save for the OG one.

The cargo R2 is absolutely fantastic. Love that shoe.

Yessir. Fighting myself not to buy them from END right now. I've spent way too much in the past few months and I already have a fresh pair of monotone black suede GL5s sitting on my shoe rack.

Yeah, it's great.

Hoping for more simple colors of that model. Also want some better colors for the city sock 2. I like the model a lot but like with the black one that just came out - not sure why they needed the random pink on the inside.

Hopping on that Vaporwave wagon. Liking it.

Uhhh yeah. The blue one is kinda nice I guess? But still. I'd expect more out of NMD's.

wesleyshark · May 31, 2017

Yeezymafia is saying most of the NMD Runners are going to be women's sizes. Also saying there won't be a R3 next year, so I'd assume just more R1s and R2s. Which is fine, because I'll definitely keep buying those lol.

Antiwhippy · May 31, 2017

The EQT stuff is honestly more interesting.

If only they didn't make the 93/17 so goddamn limited.

Quake1028 · May 31, 2017

I love both of these but $160 is a ton for shoes and $200....yeesh.

wesleyshark · May 31, 2017

1000 stock of the ultra boost tech rust on ADC (sizes 6.5-15)

I think the EU had 531 stock.

suplex · May 31, 2017

Those ultraboosts look pre stepped in shit

Garbage tier colorway

It's really the texture on the boost that really completes that poop aesthetic.

Shadow Ranger · May 31, 2017

Anyone here go to London Sneakercon? Heard the prices were ridiculous, and the queues.

lol - I tried to nab a pair, and thought I'd have an easier time due to this thought process. Most of the responses to the post on HypeBeast were "looks like someone stepped in shit." Grabbed a pair of the black soled PureBoost instead (since UB drop sold out).

whatsinaname · May 31, 2017

So. The Adidas confirmed app's notifications seem to work rather well.

-_-

Fjordson · May 31, 2017

I can never get down with colored boost for some reason.

Black boost can look okay on certain releases I guess, but any other colors just look off to me.

Adidas x Head Porter collaboration. Aside from the chukkas, which are gonna be hyped to hell because of the Porter connection, there will also be a Porter shopper bag and waist pack.

Shoes will be $160, shopper bag is $230 & waist pack is $170.

What's the recommended best place to try and grab those black and copper ultraboosts that come out in a few days? Never tried to buy shoes online at launch, so I'm wondering where I might have the best luck.

I'm considering bots.

Just old my Olympic Foamposites for $380

The unnamed model is a mash-up of 90s and 2000s skate shoes, technical runners and high fashion deliveries from designers like Rick Owens. There's no visible Yeezy or Adidas branding, but the notation of adiprene cushioning confirms that it is another 3-Stripes collaboration.

Apparently it's Adiprene Plus

Reckoner · Jun 1, 2017

Uptempo vibes

Nah, sorry, don't really follow any sneaker youtubers.

Though I've been watching some this is antwon stuff but that's more about techwear.

omg the new yeezys hahaha

real talks though wait til the kardashians and a bunch of rappers start wearing them on instagram.... still gonna sell out in 5 seconds.
