Brother which v dB Lear box do you recommend for my size 12 feet?
I appreciate the insight brother.
Thank you DJ!!
What about vaccine sealing? 🤔🤔🤔
Everything you said was 100% spot on.
1. Cool environment
2. Keep your shoes away from light. Light can also cause some materials to fade
3. Make sure shoes are getting a balance between moisture and air. Silica packets just dry out the midsoles and too much moisture can cause the midsoles to deteriorate as well
4. Make sure you wear your sneakers every once in a while, or at least try them on and wear them around the house so they get used to the pressure.
Editing is getting better too. Keep it up, DJ!
+Air Joey Himself 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
U can put it in the fridge
I’d add stay off of grass and away from water if it just rained. Unless you plan to clean them. Great Video!
Ayyy
What is the ideal humidity range?
Delz had a good idea if you plan on wearing them years down the line. Rock them around your house for at least a half hour so the paint on the midsole doesn’t crack from the stress of sitting for years and then expanding from the pressure of your foot and weight.
Are you guys psychopaths?
Should put a disclaimer that the good tips you gave only work in a location with the same climate as yours. I live in a very humid country, year-round 75-80% humidity and temperatures of 29-32° Celsius / 84-90°F. Them silica gel packs are a must to absorb the extra moisture from the humid weather.
You ain't ever lied bros... I keep them in every box or vacuum sealed bag. Hang up a damp rid bag in the closet where the shoes are kept if no bags.
*_It's not just the dirt that destroys the shoes but also the oxygen from the air, hence, called oxidation that makes plastics and glues brittle in time._*
Y’all deserve way more subscribers
Our time will come!!!!
I like this dude, I definitely gained some knowledge from this video...
Same
I personally use 3m bags. I use silica packs in the boxes. Never no issues. Trick is to keep them in a cool and dark location. Climate control is key. Best thing to do is "WEAR YOUR SHOES". Salute. 👍✊👊✌🕺🏿💃💯🙏
@@grapeeggplant3863 + Hasn't happened yet. I have over 200 pairs!!!
I've lost a Nike Air Max 97 Silver Bullet pair from 1998. It was brand new, never worn. It turned yellow in 10 years, then started to crumble around 2013, and today the base has fallen off completely. They were stored in a cool and dark room. It doesn't work.
I wish I had experimented with vacuum bags.
Could anyone confirm that vacuum bags are effective? I really need a confirmation from someone who has succeeded.
I use them too... in every box. Plus I hang up a damp rid bag in the closet my J's are in. Walk in closet stays 69°-72° with no vent from the house in there. This works for me. Ex: Pair of Wold Gray '5 from like 2012 STILL look brand new.
My number 1 rule no matter the price
@@taseronifyu messed up because you didn’t wear them
Thank you for this video, I have a lot of DS sneakers that I wanna keep brand new and I thought putting them in bags would helpe them, but I def not do that!🙏
I use armor all wipes or coconut oil on the clear soles right after I clean them and store them, that way they don't yellow as fast
I recommend getting those clear containers that has the black tint on it
So why everybody is wrapping their sneakers some say it does the opposite, who is good at science and can explain this to me lol?
Well if yellowing is cause by oxidation theoretically wrapping them and cutting off O2 can potentially slow that process down significantly.
From what I understand, oxidation (exposure to air) causes yellowing. If you prevent contact with oxygen (such as wrapping) it slows or prevents yellowing. But the problem is, if a shoe does not get enough oxygen, it dries out faster and can crumble. So the best method is trying to be balanced.
You want to release that nasty shit gassing out of the shoes
Also some materials oxidise quicker than others plus some cleaning products can dry out certain materials faster compared to others
UV fades and fluorescence will yellow over time.
If you've ever worked in clothing/apparel retail you'll know first hand how perfectly good white clothing will yellow just hanging on racks in stock rooms for apparently no reason.
wow, thanks for the video! I didn't know keeping the kicks in a ziplock bag was a bad idea. I want to start buying these containers too to preserve my shoes longer.
I've wondered why some shoe stores expose their sneakers to the humidity and light
I’ve learned a lot had no idea the about the ziplock bags n the gel crazy
Fabes sole sauce for the Icy bottoms and for the netting like on the AJ5 ✊🏽
Great video very helpful im a serious collector! Okay I most definitely will start putting the shoes over the wrapping paper for now on to slow down the aging process and keep my shoes from yellowing I also will take one pair of my Jordan’s out the plastic ziploc I thought ziplock bags helped but they actually make the shoes aging process worse💯so again thank you for the advice🫶🔥
Cardboard absorbs moisture. The boxes are cardboard they will dry the shoes out and cause the midsole to crumble faster.
I know it’s unlikely you’ll see this comment now but I’m new to the scene and your videos helped a lot, my only question is how isn’t the airflow severely restricted by placing your sneakers inside the clear containers? Just curious hopefully someone can give me an answer :)
There’s slots in the container that allows air in and the front isn’t completely sealed
DNA SHOW thanks a lot man
@@DNASHOW is it better to get them or keep them in the original box with paper or Walmart bag over them ?
Lol
I got no clue what to do
I know in the video u said flatten the paper
I don’t wanna ruin any sneakers
My air max one pair of them is turning yellow
Dang DJ thanks for all your tips I'm new to the shoe game thank God I ran into your chanel I learned so much from u then from people I know in person who knows about the shoe game much love and respect can't wait to learn more about the shoe life.
What a great idea and I can try for it because mostly I pun on a ziplock bag
That yellowing happened to my nike air max golden rod and I never even worn them once. the sneaker not even that old n i never put them under sunlight or direct heat like that. i did put them in bags for travel not while they were in the box. these material be weak too with nike, but some helpful tips here thanks
Life is too short just to look and preserve your Sneakers.
It is made to Wear it.
😊
Very true, but if you have many shoes you can't wear them all at the same time and that means they will last longer. So to look after your shoes when you're not wearing them isn't so stupid.
@@pewpewruben i used all of my Sneakers by means of alternate using them when i go to my work. It's my obligation to clean after i used them.
Using with care.
I agree RRH, i get it u cant get to all of them but it kills me when i see some straight fire sitting there DS and the person brags about not wearing them. Stupid, whether they are $50k Mags or concord 11s for retail price, all shoes should be worn and enjoyed. Life is too short to not wear em, cant take em with ya when its over!
Ahh man, I did everything u said not to..Wrapped and Zip locked my OG Breds, but they never yellowed. Makes sense for them to get air, stay dry and dark.
I use vacuum bags... never yellowed.
Can you do a video on best method to remove dust from the shoes that have been sitting on the shelf for long time with no box. Are there rollers (tape or sticky ones) that can be used that wont damage to the shoe along with vacuuming?
Wise words from a wise man....thanks for the knowledge and enlightenment...
🙌🏽 Glad I could help!
Silica gel helps keep moisture down not completely out of the box and it is good to have them to prevent moisture which we all know is the breeding ground for fungus and bacteria + bad odor especially on used shoes. I'd say air them out ones a month if you wear them and do not close the holes let the shoes breathe, i had no dust issues and if there was? probably 5%....Until someone can prove that Silica Gel deteriorates the shoes i'd keep one at least for your health.
I honestly like the pissy sole but I like my suede or upper to be clean
Thank you!! I was looking for a video like this from you! Thanks for coming through again with the 🔥🔥🔥
Thanks man, I needed this.
I also truly believe leaving them in the box drys out the shoe faster because the box is paper also the plastic the way you put them in is the best way we use to put things in the box to dry things out faster on purpose not going to tell what but different things bro and same thing happened i think keeping them in that pladt container is better holds moister better
thank you BRO! taking the silica packets out as we speak. Here I was thinking I was doing the right thing. Damn bro, im so grateful to have found this video. Can you please tell me the best product to use to clean the icy bottoms after each wear? Appreciate you!
Thank you the great tips. Its a must tips esp in times like this :)
Good pointer is block off heater vents if storing in a bedroom
Production and editing on point! I hate UA-cam videos that have no cuts or edits! I’m watching more vids after work!
Thanks for the great info! Spot on...
Had to stop by!! How do I preserve my 2018 concords in the box ?? I used shoe shrink wrapping paper
You don't need to use tape if you're going box method. Coffee filter, ppe mask etc.
Def all 💯💯 solid knowledge....✌🏽
Yea I just learned that tough lesson..smh Olympic 6 Beijing gone! One of my AJ5 gone! 4 Sole separations that can be salvaged tho.
Keep dem shits cool!
Great vid. Thanks.
DJ what about the containers not getting enough air circulation? ? ? ? ? ? Sure if there are no side holes like box's it keeps dust out, but what about not enough air......
You said don't use silica gels, but it doesn't work in tropics. I live in Thailand, if I don't use silica, the mold will eat everything I own.
I got drop front boxes .. Sunlight is a no go but what about having lamps next to the container or the room just generally being lit
Oh the shoe 👟 you're the man 👍
so confused, some sneaker heads swear to vacuum sealing, others say the sneakers need air or they will crumble years later..... someone help me so I don't ruin my collection!!
Lol It'd basically u want a midsole that doesn't crumble or u wanna keep them icy. I personally don't put my shoes in nun since shoes don't yellow till at least 2-3 years without wear and at that point it's very minimal
Which storage boxes do u use? store you purchase from?
I’m cheap and don’t like to pay for heat so I just wear jackets around the house. Is that too cold for storing shoes? Usually around 45 in here.
i noticed the containers you use do not have any holes in them. leather sneakers need air flow to prevent them from cracking right?
I just keep all my shit on racks in my walk in closet. No box, paper, plastic or nothing. I just keep them cool n take care of them. I have about 140-160 pairs
That video is really underrated 🔥🔥
Thanks for helping 🙌🏻
Are you certain the paper will yellow the sneakers? I haven’t experienced any yellowing with the two Dead-stock SB Dunk Summit Whites that were released in 2011.
damn you are so informative thankyou
Leather conditioner (especially on black) with UV protection every couple months. DS or not. Been doing this to my Bred 1s and BC3s that I haven’t even worn yet.
I have the Michigan 4s. Obviously you know they have an icey sole. How can i preserve those, to say in 15/20yrs if i wanted to sell they’d still be pristine?
Man I hear so many different things from so many different people. Like using the Saran Wrap, using the air proof bags, silicone bags everything. But this dude sounds legit so I guess I'll try it. I had a pair of cool grey 11s 2010 release I think, stored in the air proof bags for like years there is some yellowing on there a little but they still look brand new. But I also had a pair of shoes that I let just sit in the Box for years, and I just opened them up and they were all yellow at the bottom rubbers it made me so mad.
Seriously man idk what to do so much diff info out there
I keep all mine in a dark closet in the original boxes with paper
Some have a Walmart bag over them
Idk if Ima ruin them :( I haven’t worn most of them
I get them look and store
And occasionally will wear if I have the crease protectors in them
No clue what to do…
Also hear the crep spray shouldn’t be sprayed on Air Force 1 and retro 4s
No clue anymore
@@talksick508 Get a "damp rid" bag to hang in the closet. I keep a few silica bags in each box too. As a shoe head, and a dude who restorations. This is my advice for your situation. A nice dark closet is ideal if you ask me. I got 60 pair in my walk in closet in my master bedroom. None of those are yellowing. No vent in there so that's a plus too. But the ones in the garage yellow quite often. Hot temps here in Vegas.
Is it okay to buy sneaker bins with tiny holes in them in the back?
i'm still stressing over this. Living in a tropical country where it's summer all round. have you ever tried vacuum bags? the kind where you could remove all air via a pump. perhaps its similar to the cling wrap.
Worst thing you could do. I stated that in the video.
Bro he doesn't get climate... humidity will kill your shoes. Those of us in hot places can use vacuum bags or damp rid. I let them all breath every few months for a few days the vaccum them back up. No yellowing. ijs
sir what about oxidation ?
Thank you for this
Great vids 🤘. Lot of info on how to store and preserve sneakers. But I had a question. If you use it ones a week do you need to clean it before storing it? What kind of cleaning? Washing the shoes? If it has only minimal dirt? Thanks in advance.
If its a rotation shoe I’d clean it once it started to get noticeably dirty. Maybe I’m every other month or somethin.
when you see the closing footage of the video you made, I'm sure you will: "oh man, why did I do such a stupid thing, what a shame" 🤣🤣🤣😅
Thanx.. very helpful
Appreciate the video! So I’ve my sneakers in the boxes and some with the paper for 4-5 years after there purchase? What do I do?
Very new to the collection game! This is a question for anyone who can help but DJ; if you have an opinion pls, jump in and help! What's everyone's opinion on using a Baby Wipe to clean your sneakers at the end of the day after each wear? Should I be using a Sneaker Wipe specifically, or is a Baby Wipe Fine?
You already invested in your collection. Why not invest in tested shoe cleaner products?
Actually I stay in Mumbai where it's humid and rains 4 months in a year. For me Silica sachets are damn important
Im in Cali so keeping my room cool is deadass impossible. Cant cool my room when its 115°
Im not sure zip locks makes a big difference. The $1 store zip locks doesn't complete shut out air. I put my shoes in ziplock from dust. Just keep your shoes in a cool room and away from the sunlight.
It says online to wrap them in acid free tissue paper and put the silicia packs in it. So I’m confused everyone says something different
so i started storing the papers and recipts in a ziplock and putting the 1s on top of the ziplock in the box is that a better idea
🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
I’m doing the same it’s probably better than sealing the sneakers in the bag so they can breath
So I have it in my hallway closet is that good lol
That intro scared 😱 me
Sounds like the paper in the boxes is bad, but you say to flatten it down. Would it not be better to throw the paper away?
How about shoe tree that comes together? Can we put openly without container/box in room temperature? Any harm?
cant you put that botton insole wrap on it? or isnt there a protection spray that keeps it from yellowing?
Amazing content DJ! Question, will the paper stuffings inside the shoes that they come with have any negative effects on them? I.E yellowing, cracking and drying?
Thank you and I don’t think so.
@@DNASHOW can I keep then inside the j's to keep the toe box in shape?
Have air max that crumbled never bought air max since
Great video and content #DNAFam
What about Spraying your shoes with Shoeguard or a Scotchguard?
I never do
I don't understand. I live in Manchester. In the last 2 years, lots of these trainer shops have popped up that sell trainers shrink wrapped that costs many hundreds of pounds. I don't understand what this is.
Are you supposed to wear them with the shrink wrapping on?
Are you supposed to remove it?
Do they costs hundreds of pounds extra because of the shrink wrapping?
Are you supposed to use the shrink wrapping at home?
Are you not supposed to wear the shoes?
Many people suggest use of silicon
Dope info
Would it be better to completely throw the paper away instead of just folding it?
No for reselling purposes
Dam DNA u got me all worried about my collection now 😮 lol naw good shit tho thanks for the tips
What up champ. I have a question for you. I’m new to the sneakers game, I been storing them in the black shoe containers. I see you use the clear ones. Is ok to use the ones that I have? Thx
OMG Silica Gel (I would of never thought that would of been a problem) brother you are a diamond (I’ve run to remove all the paper from my shoe box’s and the silica gel packets I’ve hidden all around my kicks) and I’m about to max out the wife’s credit card on drop front storage boxes (bro send hitmen because I think I’m going to be killed) 😆 thank you for this Video excellent information
Dope Dan haha right I literally ran back to my closet as soon as he said zip lock bags need to be open 😂
hey bro i just ordered some NikeSB FTC Sento dunk low. they have a icy bottom and i heard theres some stuff u can put on it. what is it called? ive also seen people use that spray stuff so rain and stuff just wipes off. i guess if u coat the shoe enough with it that it will protect it and u could wipe it down every so often and give it a new layer. maybe that will keep the good look on them and preserve them.
Humidity controlled walk-in humidor 🤔
Does the paper in the box cause yellowing? I removed it and switched to acid free tissue paper..
Smart move
They make em with the yellow look now.
So don’t use Reshoevn8r Shoe & Sneaker Care & Protection - Shoe & Sneaker Fresh Bags ?
Will be alright if I use humidifier in my closet ?
You know what's crazy I usually just leave my shoes out sitting on top of the boxes, and they don't yellow at all
I tried putting them in the big Ziploc air- tight bags hopefully that works
@Factual 1 cotton towels? I've never heard of those. Are they like regular towels?
@Factual 1 no I don't know him but I'll check out his Channel right now and I'll try that
@Factual 1 can you send me a link to that video?
Steer clear from water
Don’t mow the lawn with them
Ziploc bags are good for preventing nike cheap leather getting signs of wear during shipping.
I'm storing kicks in original box and wondering if it's best to keep paper inside the actual shoe or should I remove it for better air flow, kind regards thank bro,dope content 🔥
U ever find out? I’m the same
Wondering what to do ….
I got 40 pairs just started collecting
And don’t wanna ruin them
I just keep them in the box with paper in my closet
Some I’ve never worn at all
Take paper out if they got icy bottom
@@Ckkb897 thank u
Luckily I don’t have any ice bottoms
So I’m ok?
@@talksick508 i mean is up to you .. i really dont be caring too much about how i store the ones without icy bottoms. I keep sum of them with and without paper but i check on them every other month . For Icy bottoms i wrap them in clear wrapping paper & every other month i let them breathe and wear em around the house then wrap them back up .
@@Ckkb897 really appreciate u letting me kno that
I got ocd badly so I def get ehh u kno???
I don’t want them yellowing or breaking
im guessing you dont use any protection on your shoes? i searched your channel but couldnt find anything? cheers
Hey, I have my sneakers in plastic containers. They are clear containers not the sneaker specific ones you have showing, but similar. Is there anything specific your containers have that could be unique to others? Thanks.
Doesn’t the plastic box restrict airflow as well?
Dj you should do a video of if it’s a good idea of putting Jordan’s & what not in the washer & dryer . Personally I don’t do that bc it’ll mess up the leather & what not but that’d be a dope video for people who don’t know
I’ve put many shoes In the wash and never messed up the leather. Just don’t put them in the dryer and let them air dry.
@@MikeM10293 oh ok have you ever put like Jordan 11s since they have patent leather around them in the washer ? I feel like it’ll affect it to be honest
@@iklapyouoncod6664 I have no experience with patent leather I’m too poor for shit like that 😂 I’m sure it would be fine though I can’t think of any reason it wouldn’t be but I haven’t tried it. Make sure to wash with cold on a delicate cycle too. I usually throw in a towel as well but idk if that’s necessary
