Air Jordan 15 Player Edition Restoration

These rare player editions were released to the public, making them one of the rarest Jordan 15s to ever release and if you got them you are one lucky person! One interesting fact about these sneakers is that Ray Allen, a NBA legend rocked a pair very similar to the pair you see in Vick's hand! Vick was given the opportunity to restore these sneakers by giving them a full clean and a complete reglue. Although this may be a simple restoration it was going to take a whole lot of work!
These rare Jordan 15s feature a weaving material on the uppers. Now the Jordan 15s are incredibly underrated and overlooked! Do you agree or disagree?
As always you can't start a restoration without a little bit of destruction; the soles had to be removed to make them 100% wearable again. Once the deconstruction was completed it was time to reconstruct them, but first comes all of the prep work from removing broken down air units to removing old glue using acetone and cotton balls. Like all reglues the prepwork is hands down the most important and most tedious process in the game.
After the main prepwork was completed it was time to replace the broken down air units with EVA foam, now this step is questionable, but it is 100% necessary to make your sneakers wearable again. Once prepwork was completed it was time to put the sneaker back together using Barge Superstick and some heat. The Jordan 15s have a lot of different pieces and it is quite literally a puzzle to put them back together.
The reglue was finally completed after a couple of days and it was time to clean them up and make those rare sneakers shine again! Next we relied on UV rays to remove that dreaded oxidation from the uppers and midsole. Pro tip: UV rays are a perfect tool for removing oxidation and often you don't even need to apply chemicals to the shoe.
