As sad as it is to realize, over time any shoes become unusable. And if it is still suitable for wear, then its appearance evokes nostalgia for the time when it was first purchased. This is especially true for such comfortable and beloved shoes as sneakers. And it happens that it is not possible to buy a new pair or there is currently no product of the same quality on sale. For this reason, many are interested in how to paint sneakers to make an old item look like it was just purchased. And can shoes be repainted at all?
Yes, this task is doable. You can go to any shoe shop, where for a fee they will select the paint of the desired color depending on the type of material. But is it worth overpaying if, with a wide range of coloring agents for shoes, it’s quite possible to do it yourself. First you need to understand what the product is made of and decide on the scope of work.
Preparing shoes
Sneakers should be thoroughly washed to remove dust, remove dirt, and remove any remaining shoe polish and wax. Then you need to degrease the entire surface or individual areas to be restored. Special cleaners will help you cope with these procedures efficiently and quickly, but you can also use improvised materials. For example, a solution of laundry soap with the addition of ammonia will replace a store-bought product. Shoes should be dried well naturally, avoiding electric heating devices.
Sneaker movement is good
Move the slider, be surprised
I deeply regret that some trends are not popular in our country: for example, comics or, for example, collecting sneakers and, in general, the passion for sneakers and sneakers.
Therefore, the appearance of sneaker dry cleaning is a significant event. It’s the same as if Marvel opened an official store selling its comics in Russian (I’m still waiting for this, honestly).
Move the slider, be surprised
It’s great that the guys can safely give even their sneakers, even their Timberlands, or even their UGG boots for cleaning and get back truly updated shoes.
The cleaning procedure is not quick: each pair of shoes takes from 7 to 10 days. But don’t worry - when your dear sneakers are ready, you will receive an SMS or a call from the manager, saying, go ahead and take them, so you definitely won’t lose the shoes or forget about them.
The price tag is moderately humane, see for yourself :
- sole cleaning – 300 rub.
- comprehensive cleaning of one pair – from 1100 rubles.
- deep cleaning (with restoration of the shape of sneakers) – from 1400 rubles.
There are even more examples, detailed prices and a courier order form on their website - come in, study, use. The price tag is very humane, the result is excellent.
If you are still in doubt whether to give away your shoes or not:
