How to Clean Nike Suede Dunks
Вставка

- Suede is a tricky material, but mix it with a vibrant color and it slowly becomes one of the hardest materials to clean. The Orange Lobsters were arguably one of the best releases of 2022, but the possibility for error when cleaning them could cause problems. Lucky for you RESHOEVN8R not only has the best product in the game, but we have all the tips and tricks to match! For today's Shoe Care Academy we will walk you through exactly how to clean Suede Nike Dunks using the Essential Cleaning Kit.
What you don't see on camera is the back and forth conversation between keeping this a dry cleaning and using the Dry Suede Kit vs. getting them wet and using the Essential Cleaning Kit. Now that was a battle. With the possibility of color bleeding, color fade and the speckled detail washing off we had a few possibilities for error; not to mention the extremely delicate materials! However, we have faith in the RESHOEVN8R way, so the Essential Kit was a must.
We picked up this pair used on eBay and then Nick had the opportunity to rock them and get them more dirty. Although he hit on retail for his own pair when they dropped... He turned around and sold them for a profit. Was that the right or wrong decision?! After they went through the dirtying process, we got straight to work on the Shoe Care Academy episode!
For the cleaning we used the Essential Cleaning Kit paired with a couple additional products. First step as always is to get the laces out of the sneaker; this allows you to really clean the tongue. Then a crucial step of the cleaning is always to insert the Adjustable Shoe Tree. This helps hold the shape of the sneaker and allows you to put pressure on the toebox.
The cleaning is straight forward start by cleaning the entire uppers using the Soft Bristle Brush. The Soft Brush is the most delicate and breaks down the grime while maintaining the integrity of the sneaker. For this cleaning we cleaned each section little by little while patting it dry with a Microfiber Towel as we go. Since suede is delicate and bleeding was a possibility it is HIGHLY important to not oversaturate the material and to pat the sneaker dry. Once the uppers were clean we moved onto our Medium Bristle Brush to take on the midsole. Since the midsole is black it didn't need too much work! Finally the Stiff Bristle Brush was used to breakdown the grime on the outsole of the sneaker. Once the pretreatment was done. All that was left allow the sneaker to dry in the Arizona sun.
Here's a tip... When cleaning suede always allow the shoe to dry evenly to avoid watermarking.
After the sneaker was dried we did notice a little bit of color fading from that vibrant orange. Luckily our Mink Oil was able to bring it back. When applying Mink Oil it takes about 2-3 even coats. Hold the can about 6 inches from the sneaker and spray evenly then rub it into the sneaker using a brush and repeat until you get the desired results! Then you're all done!
The before and afters speak for themselves! We tried and trusted the process with this cleaning. If you copped a pair of these don't be afraid to clean them!

Facts
I’m pretty sure it’s a record of how many times RESHOEVN8R is said in one video. Fucking love it
It's a lot of times
niceeee man
love yall! can you guys do the whole lobster set (even the white ones)
If only I could afford the F&F white lobsters. We have the purple, and green lobsters on the channel from prior years as well.
@@FunTimesWithSkylarAndNick yes please 🙏
Would you recommend Mink oil to restore black suede? I have a water mark on the toe box area of a pair of Air Jordan 1 low OG black cements that I am trying to figure out how to properly fix. Tried using an eraser and brush but it did not work. Only made mark a little more apparent. Texture seems a little off from the mark and slightly faded compared to the unstained area that is evenly black of course.
The shoe tree is KEY 🔑
Sure is!
@@RESHOEVN8R it’s a must when cleaning all my sneakers 👟 I gotta have it
W clean
i love the purple lobster and orange one too, though i can only really afford the orange lobster sadly ):
i neeed that kit
Question: I enjoyed & appreciated the info in this vid BUT as far as the bleeding goes for this pair, you have a black midsole & all the upper panels are different shades of orange... so my question is how different of an approach should I take when cleaning my SB Dunk Low 'Phillies'? Very similar materials but white midsole, powder blue uppers, & maroon swoosh. I'm particularly worried about that maroon bleeding into the blue. Whattya say for that pair? Thanks!
You can follow the same shoe cleaning method for your B Dunk Low 'Phillies' shoes.
can you pls do a video on how to clean the nike sb low white gums
Thanks to your vids I managed to make my shoes look pretty much new again. I cant do everything you do as you but I followed along with everything I could and got great results. Also these vids are satisfying to watch.
Great to hear!
Lobster came out great🦞 ready to be served 🍽
Can't believe I'm early!
SB dunks >>>>> Dunks for sure!
🔥🔥🔥🔥VIDEO NEXT DO THE JORDAN 4 RED THUNDER
Thanks for watching. We cleaned the Red Thunder last year. Check out that video here - ua-cam.com/video/6okzj2arSRo/v-deo.html
Can you guys do a video on how to clean the 990v2 cyclades. Multi color suede panels. With colors that can run?
We can look into adding them for sure
@@RESHOEVN8R that would be great, if possible.
Any guess on what colour suede dye for the toe box? Qc issues crazy bad on mine
It's a part of the restoration and it's a very tough method. Hence, I would recommend searching for a restoration and customization service provider in your area, who can fix your shoes immediately.
Hey man I’m having some trouble can you please show how to clean the dunk retro se white
We can look into it
SB dunks > dunks
Can you make a custodire to the new Jordan 1 spider man to make them more similar to a Chicago 1 please ?
We can look into it
I have some original 2005 Nike SB De La Soul Highs. I wore them maybe 5 times and they show virtually no where from being worn, however, over the last 18 years the leather is starting to look cracked and the plastic surrounding the holographic heel is cracking. Is there any way to save these, because I had no idea they were that rare and literally like the holy Grail and sell for like $800 to $1,200 in like new shape.
Please send images of shoes via email at Info@reshoevn8r.com
I really liked this shoe. So sad I didn’t cop on release day. Lobsters fly to the moon in the aftermarket
YO I got blood on my yeezy 500 stone. Can I use this product to specifically clean the “blood” out of suede? Blood is hard to get out in general.
Hello!
Thank you for connecting to Reshoevn8r. I would be more than happy to help you to get your shoes cleaned and the red carpet ready! If you could please send us some photos via email at info@reshoevn8r.com of the shoes you’re looking to clean would be a great help to recommend the best products to clean stains from your shoes.
Have the best day!
can you clean the jarritos dunk sb
Coming soon it is highly requested!
Would reshoevn8r be able to remove tuneric with oil off a shoe
Need to check the shoes. Can you please send some pictures of the shoes?
Can I paint over 3m material? Trying to paint black over Jordan 6 reflections
It will most likely continue to crack
Does the same apply to the 2020 air max 90 infrared? Also i thought you were NOT supposed to use any water at all on suede because of water damage
The Air Max would need the washing machine. You can wet suede, but you have to be careful.
@@RESHOEVN8R im not prepared to use the washing machine. Is there no other alternative?
How dirty are the shoes?
Would cleaning the gone fishing rainbow trouts be similar?
It's a suede shoe and suede is a delicate material. So, the cleaning method will be different. You can refer to this follow video: ua-cam.com/video/uxBrZZM2amk/v-deo.html
100% going to bleed. Nike are a nightmare for it. Their suede bleeding teaches you lots of lesson's 😂
Great video 🍻
Hey guys! Do you think a similar cleaning would work with the Green Apple SBs?
After many request, we just ordered a used pair off Ebay. Stay tuned for the cleaning video coming in a few weeks!
It should, we are looking into cleaning that shoe as well
@@RESHOEVN8R thats great! Thanks
Can you guys please show how to clean my Nike sb ‘Why So Sad’
We are looking into this shoe
What do I do if the shoe already has bleeding from previous owner?
Is your cleaning solution mixed with water??
Yes, the cleaning solution is mixed with water.
Fill up a bowl with 4-6 ounces of water and add two squirts of our cleaning solution.

Would these work with lobster reps ?
Yes!
Can i still clean the shoe with only the essential kit ?
Hi! Yes! You can clean the shoes with Essential Kit only.
I have a Nike dunks pro Éire, they're suede leather, I can't wear them because they look faded and terrible but they're in very good condition
Try some Mink Oil!
I need to clean my shoes please 🙏🏽
How do you allow your shoes to get that dirty?
Big sb fan dnt really like the regular dunks not enough cushion
Way better than Vic

If you get your orange lobster's this dirty just cut your losses and sell them as is. Cleaning them is a pain with all the bleeding
