mr locks ive noticed that your sneaks always look boxfresh even after youve worn em. i use baby wipes on the leathers but i cant seem to get the soles really clean, any tips? also i bought a pair of 73 blazers and they have a cloth toe box which has gotten a lil dirty any advice on how to clean that also thanks in advance |

for the soles mate, use a toothbrush and warm soapy water, and if you have still got bad stubborn stains on them after you have dried them off with a towell, get some nail varnish remover on a cloth and rub hard, that gets rid of everything on soles....works on plain uppers as well but be very careful there tho cos it can muller colours, but its fine for white uppers. for the toebox on the blazers, get a 'vanish' soap bar, use a clean toothbrush and water , and wet the brush, then rub on the bar then clean the shoes...make sure you rinse it well afterwards with the brush and water, then leave to dry for perfect clean again shoes. p.s no matter what anyone says, dont ever put them in the washing machine, cos that is one million per cent the beginning of the end..they are never the same after they have been in there, trust me. |

I here that, I used to just think kicks are kicks, there what touch the floor so if they get beat so be it. If me and my mates went for a spontaneous kick about of course id get involved, rare trainers or not. |

maybe it's just my drunken antics but after some nights out my trainers seem to go past the point of no return (i guess i should stop going to illegal raves in fields and fighting with the rozzers) |

toothbrush and soapy water...just make sure you rinse the soap off after with the toothbrush clean of soap as well. |

I use flash wipes - they very good ...although I'll probably get killed by the headz now as they probably have some bad chemicals on them that are no good. |
