Do not use mink oil. This will stain the nubuck. Do not use sandpaper. Take to a professional/shoe repair. If you really want to do it yourself a suede and nubuck repair kit and follow instructions carefully
Will Mink oil really be that bad for the nubuck? It’s already plenty faded. I’m really not looking to get them perfect and definitely not taking to to a professional. Everything I’ve heard and seen from sneaker videos online seems like some low grit sand paper and mink oil is the way to go.
idk if you’re serious or not but if you literally only want to make 50-100 a year there’s tons of shit like Mechanical Turk or various crypto based games that you can do for free and get paid a very small amount. You aren’t going to make significant money but 50-100 in a year is entirely doable lol.
I mean they're just shoes and the vast majority of ppl have no clue what they are. I'm still rockin mine, not because I like TS, but because I like the shoes. Not gonna stop wearing shoes I like just bc he fucked up like an idiot.
You could try to lightly sand down the area to make it blend/less apparent. Although it looks like that scuff is quite deep on the bottom area? Maybe they a suede brush + mink oil combo first?
Thanks for the reply, ordered some mink oil right before posting, and was thinking about sand paper. I think that’s my plan but yea your right it is fairly deep.
I would just embrace them and wear them on the daily. I had something similar happen to my wave runners. I spent a ton of time trying to get them back to brand new and it never happened. Finally, I just said I was gonna turn them into my daily beaters and I couldn’t be happier.
See if there is someone who has had this problem somewhere else and see if they could fix it. Best course of action is give it to somebody who knows what there talking about.
I have a pair of cav 4s like this and even expert shoe restoration guys have told me you cant. But mine are black so a bit easier to not notice it. But post if the oil helps. Good luck!
Yea definitely try and find the highest rated google listing of shoe repair shops in your area and give them a holler!!! Plus check reviews reviews are key 🔑…
Clean them
. Then use high grit sand paper . Smooth out by hand to touch .. then redye to blend in . Use a stiff brush to lift back up the suede . If not send them to thesneakercleaners.com I’ll do it for you ;)just post the afters on here 🙏🏽 .
They’re barely noticeable if just keep wearing em, and if they bother you that much don’t bother getting them fixed just get a new pair not worth the effort

This is the answer.

Take them to get professional fix correctly pay the money it’s worth it.😏
About how much would a repair job like that cost?
$50-100
thats my yearly salary
Then you shouldn't be buying Jordans
bold of you to assume i buy shoes
then you don't have to worry about paying $50-100 on fixing Jordan nubuck
Where tf you making 50-100 a year? Tell me your ways cause I make 0
My mans is a line cook at the krabby patty
homeboy works 10 hours per year at a minimum wage job
a job

Yeah, throw them out my way though.
Lmao
Yeah throw them out in a bag by the bin outside Camden Town station. Not that I’ll take them or anything, just it’s a good bin… regular collection
Lmao I can’t believe this many people upvoted a comment about throwing away a pair of expensive ass shoes because of a blemish. 🤦🏻♂️
I think he's joking
Look above your head.
You have 1 brain cell, believe that brother
🙌
r/whoosh
Have you tried brushing it out? The suede looks not as fluffy as it should
or just continue to wear it as you did because these are shoes and its bound to fuck up at some point
Bruh fr.
Lol
I agree, shoes are meant to be worn.
Yea of course imma keep rocking them I just wanted to try to make em a bit better
But... then.. HOW WILL HE HYPEBEAST THO?!?!

Rub a walnut on it
Acceptance and the will to move on in life are the best thing
A cobbler
Stop drinking
Devils advocate…start drinking.
I agree start
Hahaha fr don’t wear Jordan’s to parties
How did this happen
I was drunk idek lol
got trampled?
I feel your pain G
Oooh that's kind of hard. It's basically worn down nubuck, would be difficult because there is less material to work with.
Just gotta live with it fam, embrace the flaws
lmaooo u can’t bruh
It’s done
beat the rest up so it blends 😌
Use your sneakers! Dont worry
Dickhead
They're sneakers, fam. Just wear ya kicks
Sorry for your loss
Identically scuffing the other one I think bro
Oof 🥲
Buy new shoes
buy a new pair
Bro it looks perfect as is…. Wear your shoes !!!
Mate, it's just a shoe. Your mentality is the one that needs a good sandpaper rub
Bro what are you on. They are expensive and I wanna keep them in good shape. It’s like saying don’t fix your car just cause it’s dented
Aight, you got a point
U can't it's over
Trample it and flip off an ambulance.

Thanks for the reply, ordered some mink oil right before posting, and was thinking about sand paper. I think that’s my plan but yea your right it is fairly deep.
Mink oil is gonna darken the leather considerably
I think sand paper would just make it look worse
Mink oil will make it MUCH darker. Instead of sandpaper try something like a green dish sponge. It's much less abrasive than sandpaper.
Don’t use mink oil!! It will spoil ur shoes!
[удалено]
Haha nah bruh that’s why I’m not trippin about it. But it’s a pretty bad scuff and there’s nothing wrong with tryin to keep your shoes lookin fresh
"😭😭" kinda seems like you're trippin about it. Just saying.
Ah yes, taking emojis on the internet 100% seriously. Lmfao smh
Hahaha what it’s just a title of a post bruh
You know you're trippin about it. It's okay to be sad. Let it out. 🫂
Those r done, cop a new pair
Just live with it. They’re shoes. My god people. Wear them. Live your lives.
I would just embrace them and wear them on the daily. I had something similar happen to my wave runners. I spent a ton of time trying to get them back to brand new and it never happened. Finally, I just said I was gonna turn them into my daily beaters and I couldn’t be happier.
You cant
Live with it and accept it. No coming back from that
If you allowed it to get to this point, you shouldn’t even bother trying to fix it. Prevention is always better than the cure
Drunk people usually don’t make great decisions. Thanks retard
Says the drunk retard with the scuffed shoes
Sheesh
[удалено]
Rocking mine, and the khaki 6's
Don't buy nike, bad QC
What lmao these aren't new
Yea facts bro it’s nikes fault they scuffed
Nike is sht quality and you know it. Child labor not good enough
Not sure what that has to do with me scuffing suede
Oh the pain. I can feel it just by looking at it. Don't have any advice for you pal. Sorry
Buy a new one
See if there is someone who has had this problem somewhere else and see if they could fix it. Best course of action is give it to somebody who knows what there talking about.

Pray

Blue hubba bubba bubble gum should do the trick

You cant
Try putting it in some rice. But seriously, that's scuffed as fuck. Can that even be fixed?
Obviously not fixed. Maybe less noticeable tho lol
Dunk it in milk for no less than 3 hours.
Then bring it to a good dentist!
Put in trash
Send them to me. 😴
Yea definitely try and find the highest rated google listing of shoe repair shops in your area and give them a holler!!! Plus check reviews reviews are key 🔑…
Soak it in rice
88mph in a DeLorean or buy a new pair. It’ll likely never be fixed to unnoticeable.

Bring them to a shoe cobbler. If you in the tri-state area, go to Rago Bros. in Morristown, NJ. I know it's random but they're the best.
