Nice Zwer, when my IB's turned up they had dusty shell syndrome so I wiped them with a baby wipe a couple of times and they came up lovely
RE: Superstar 35 Neighborhood (Consortium Series) - Lorrie - 16-11-07
good tip. i wonder if it was the lotion in the wipe that reconditioned the rubber?
was going to try a bit of hand lotion on them.

Dunno, I got that tip off of here, I think it was Woody's, I can't claim any credit for it..... or any blame if things go horribly wrong!!!

speaking of cleaning NBHDs - what would you recommend for the upper? it's sort of nubuck-ish, so I don't think normal leather/shoe polish would be good?
RE: Superstar 35 Neighborhood (Consortium Series) - Lorrie - 16-11-07
Hmm...maybe i'll think this over for a bit.

Yeah, my IB's are getting a bit off colour, just give em a wipe, it'll not hurt!
Zwer. 1000 respects to you dude!!! vvvv nice pick up, perhaps the pick up of the year!!!
Cool

thanks Anth. It's been an expensive summer/fall.
Not sure what I would use to clean the upper, DJ WT. Think I'm of the mindset that I'm just not gonna get them dirty. As you may notice from my pic, I'm wearing them with my Yoda-friendly corduroys I bought back when I thought they'd be dropping imminently. Can't risk denim bleed (especially on the laces)

I know, but I would just like to be prepared for a worst case scenario...

Duck tape on the hems works a gem!!!

well, i used water and a toothbrush on my underworld's to no ill effect.
you'd probably be fine with a bit of soap and water on the NBHD. I'd find a spot that's usually covered by your trouser leg and try there first.
