Is it possible to whiten the rubber sole of yellowed rick owen dunks?

[mrbeuys]

I use sandpaper on mine. Works.

This thing happened with the heel...



What are the risks? is it dangerous in some way?

I'm afraid to occasionally tear them in that place. The leather seems so soft.

Well, I'm fairly certain it won't kill you. But it will kill the inside of your shoe (and decrease its overall wear-life), so getting it stitched up before you drive it into the ground is my recommendation. A small patch can be put over it, too, if you feel you'll rub away the seam over time.

Thank you, will visit a cobbler soon.

Is it hard to fix it? regular cobbler will be able to deal with it? cause i don't know personally really good cobblers here in Prague. Just ordinary places.

usually easy/inexpensive to fix. cobbler glues up the damaged part, then glues a leather patch over and (if it's a good cobbler) then sews the patch to the shoe following existing seams so that the stitching is not visible.

Thanks! Will check he will do it right way.

Is it possible to dye white RO dunks with white dye so it looks new again? Or will this destroy the leather?

I've not seen this variation of the Island dunk before, i'm guessing this is legit...

There are dyes specifically for leather, they will not damage the shoe

Oh yes, 100% authentic or money back.

Can anyone tell me how the SS13 trainers fit?

I've seen some rumblings of some iterations of the Geobasket fitting smaller than usual but I'd like some more confirmation since I've never messed with the new design.

For what its worth, I've owned some Rick Dunks and two fit true to size, the current pair I own (black, unsure of season) fits smaller than my other two size 43s.

Wondering about this if anyone knows, specifically ss13 or fw13 sizing for geo's. thinking about buying from a seller online who claims that 2013 geos fit about a half size big, but a lot of other people say tts, just take your mmm/nike size. anyone know?

[Crowzer]

I have SS 13 GEO and I confirm this "that 2013 geos fit about a half size big".

[max_yeah_true]

ive tried fw13 geos and they do fit half a size big imo due to the roomy toebox

[Pilu]

Just got FW13 Geos and I think they fit TTS. I wear a 12 in Nikes and 45 in Ricks. Heel is the most snug part for me.
