De-yellowing
What does it include?
Our De-yellowing Restoration Service includes:
- Standard cleaning service to prepare the shoes for the restoration work. Cleaning includes: cleaning of uppers, midsoles, outersoles, laces, insoles, removal of minor scuffs and stains, disinfecting and deodorizing.
- Restoration service: This service is focused on de-yellowing for solid soles. Some soles will turn yellow. It's a natural process called oxidation that results from the sneaker's exposure to air. Even if you've never used the shoes, this process is hard to prevent. But we can try to reverse it!
De-yellowing services do not include sole re-painting, re-glue, swap or any repair to the uppers or insides of the shoe.

De-yellowing Restoration Service
This service is designed to bring your soles back to life. The yellowing on your soles might not be dirt but the result of oxidation, a chemical reaction that causes some materials to turn yellow. It cannot be removed with cleaning but it may be reversed with our de-yellowing restoration.
Important Information about De-yellowing and Re-icing
De-yellowing and re-icing are not exact sciences. Results will vary depending on the age and condition of your shoes.
Make sure to inspect the complete outsole. If the outsole is loose anywhere, please let us know, as this may affect our ability to complete the service.
Too far gone 🫣
We love all shoes, but in cases like this, we have to be honest and say: yours deserve a rest.
Looking good! 😏
Older and more worn pairs will not always lose 100% of the yellowing but you will see a significant improvement.
Back to life 😎
Less worn pairs yield the best results. The lesson here: send your shoes before it's too late!
