One of the biggest gripes about Nike’s ‘Vintage’ treatment of its shoes is that the pre-yellowing is almost unnecessary. While it does provide the ‘vintage’, beat-up sneaker look, that’s something that we can do on our own. By wearing them. Over time. The Air Jordan AJKO, for example, was a highly popular Jordan Retro in 2010 that many scrubbed down with various cleaning materials to make them white as new, and the same was done for the Nike Dunk Low VNTG in the ‘Ultraman’ colorway from the anticipated Be True To Your Street Pack. After a nice scrubdown with wet tissue, they cleaned up pretty well, don’t you think? Check out the full before-and-after below courtesy of Dunkbar and let us know if you’d consider giving them a clean. Want to give it a try? Cop a pair now on eBay.
