I picked up these Air Jordan 5 Red Suedes on Whatnot for about $50 and thought they’d make a fun restoration project. They’re in decent shape overall with no major separation or tears, but the suede is faded and dirty, the translucent soles have yellowed, the netting and sock liners need a good cleaning, and there are a few minor scuffs on the midsoles. My plan is to give them a deep clean, restore the suede with a brush and eraser, re-dye the suede if necessary, and then do a few sessions in the Ice Box to improve the icy soles. Before I get started, I’d like to hear what you all think. Does this sound like the right approach, or would a thorough cleaning and brushing be enough to bring the suede back without re-dyeing it? Is there anything else you notice from the photos that I should address during the restoration? This is my first time restoring a pair of Red Suedes, so I’d appreciate any tips or recommendations before I dive in. Thanks!

Haven’t played DMZ in a while, but with DMZ 2 dropping later this year I’m trying to get back into it. Looking for some chill people to run some matches with today. Doesn’t matter if you’re new or a veteran just looking to have fun, knock the rust off, and build a solid squad.
