Air Jordan 12 Restoration
Вставка
- Опубліковано 16 лип 2023
- The Flu Game Jordan 12s are an iconic shoe and Vick has already done some restorations on these kicks, but what sets this one apart? These are the OG 1997 release and as we have said before retros don't compare to the originals. We picked this pair up at eBay for a decent price, but with that price comes a lot of restoration work.
For the first step of the restoration it is the deconstruction phase, by taking apart the soles and midsoles. As well as removing the crumbling midsoles from the sneakers and the tabs you see on the sneakers. After the deconstruction part comes the fun part.... Prep work! Prep work is one of the most crucial parts of the job, but it is a time suck. Next it is time to replace the crumbling air units with EVA foam to keep the sneakers comfortable and wearable.
Next, we have more prep work to do to ensure that we can provide the best glue job possible. Reglues take a lot of work and they have to be precise to make them effective. We also went ahead and repainted the midsoles to ensure they matched the uppers properly and looked factory again.
Although this restoration was a simple ad straightforward process; everything seen in this video was 100% necessary to make bring these OG Flu Game 12s back to their original glory. After all the restoration steps were complete it was time to clean these sneakers and make sure that they shine; for an effective clean we relied on RESHOEVN8R as always.
What is the best colorway in Jordan 12s ever?

VERY HARD WORKER! HARDEST WORKER IN THE CULTURE!
Thank you for the support!
Never disappointed with a video from Vic
We're thrilled to have received your positive review!
Amazing work as usual…and I agree there hasn’t been a retro that’s been even remotely close to the original
We agree! Thanks for watching.
Nicely done Vic keep up the great work!!!🤙🏾💯🤘🏾
Thanks! Will do!
Good job Vick the flu games is one of my favorite shoes. Top 5 for sure 😎

We wish the same for you! All the best!
Man those shoes look absolutely clean

You are a master brahh
Thank you
Vick the 🐐
Best sneaker of all time for me my childhood memories 😩
Its def a classic for sure! Thanks for watching our video!
Greetings, how can I get the tongue of the jordan 12 that you used in the restoration
I hate doing re glues I always have issues with to much slack in the toe area and it ends up not lining up right
Yo im your fan from the Philippines ❤❤
We appreciate you
great vid! will always prefer the original over the retro no matter the condition! you guys should do a union Jordan 4 restoration!
Thanks for watching! Vick did a Union AJ4 Resto / Custom recently. Did you get a chance to see this video? ua-cam.com/video/EtlMnltjevc/v-deo.html
Nice
I have some Taxi’s from 97 that are DS. I wonder if it’s e to replace the air unit as well?
Hey Vic I have a pair jordan 5 laney blue need restoration I don't trust anyone but you to fix the color on them
This was so dope! Amazing work, as usual Vic! Bruh, "Flu Games" were my very first Jordan, I was like, 12 and wore them thangs OUT 😅. And Vic is right, current 12s feel nothing like those! Even the eyelets aren't the same.
The ‘03 Retros are solid and are considered to be the best and most true to OG form. All the other ones are meh at best. But if some people like the newer retros, or if that’s all they could get their hands on, I can’t be mad at them; I just hope one day they can come across an OG pair
We wish the same!!
@@Thejordanenthusiast same!!
EBAY. I bought 3 pair
Would love to see an ‘01 zen grey 11 restoration someday 😅
Thanks for this vid Vick!!! How can we get in touch with Jason Colleges

Saludos desde Puerto Rico. Donde puedo conseguir las partes laterales de los jordan 12?(side panel)
You can check it out on Amazon or eBay.
About to try and restore my obsidian 12’s still in good shape but bad sole separation and yellowing, luckily Sensei Vick will help my noob ass
We appreciate you for tuning in. If you have any questions or need any help please reach out to us via DM.
@@RESHOEVN8R appreciate and will do!
You could buy the full length zoom units. That’s what they put in the 12s
Thank you for the suggestion 😀
I bought a zoom on eBay when I started heating the glue along with the zoom due to the fact that I left the heat gun on for quite a long time, the air block began to swell due to hot air, so never keep the heat on for a long time, otherwise the whole result will be in the trash, and today I finally finished this work
😮 Thank you for sharing the information!
Where I can buy those side tabs, could anybody reply please?
I need this done asap my tabs are cracked can you do this for me or point me in the right direction please
How do I get ahold of Jason for parts?

Is the 24hr curing time needed or could I just wait a few hours?
Yes! For the best results, you should cure them at least overnight!

My heart was broke when Vick didn’t say “we’re gonna squirt 2 squirts “ 😂
For these purists that get triggered when Vic uses EVA foam to replace the air/zoom units, please stop.
They’re not readily available to buy as an individual part, so another shoe has to be bought and torn down just to get to the units. That’s money and a pair of kicks wasted for pieces that won’t even be seen, because they’re not visible air units like the 3’s-6’s.
If it bothers y’all that much, then donate some kicks to Vic. But if you’re not doing anything except complaining, shut up and get out y’all’s feelings.
Thanks for your support!☺️
That's why I can't pull the trigger on a 2017 flu game
Bad quality materials.didnt learn my lesson and bought the master 12s...bad quality and pricey
BRO I'M THE FIRST, HOPE VIC WOULD NOTICE ME
O... k...
Lol

@@RESHOEVN8R How?
Do some more air max the jordan stuff is getting boring
Thank you for the feedback! We will work on it.
I’d like to see them work on some vintage Reebok’s like the Question Mids, Shaqnosis, Kamikazes, etc.
I stopped watching when you used EVA foam.. went from Air Jordan 12 flu game to EVA Jordan 12 flu game
STOP LYING! YOU KEPT WATCHING! 😂
@@sterlonb.digital777he's capping 🧢
1: 12’s use Zoom units instead of air units.
2: Air and Zoom units aren’t readily accessible to buy individually. Another shoe has to be taken apart to get it, and that’s more money to spend.
3: You and other purists need to stop whining about a piece of the shoe that WON’T EVEN BE SEEN.
My feed said this was just uploaded 7 mins ago yet ive already watched this one
That's weird, but we are glad that you are here!
@@RESHOEVN8R thanks I'm a huge fan of the channel and despite not being able to buy your products yet I still enjoy watching vick and everyone elses content especially the content involving taking old busted up shoes and making them like new again and the videos where you guys customize shoes.
