That pair sold, boxless with replacement insoles, for $290 shipped in the US. Hard work paid off!

that shit is ridiculous. what jason markk products did you use for that jesse?

Yeah $290 shipped ha wow.

I didn't use JM on the canvas, just the suede. And you can't use that stiff brush they give you, you need a softer one. For the canvas, I diluted a light detergent and gave the shoes a good twice over. Air dry only. Rinse with water.

Buy the.premium hog brush. Its perfect for the softer materials on vans. i believe i remember reading that he went through alot of brush samples before he chose it. The regular brush might as well be made of wire...lol but perfect for that sole/midsole!

But seriously, get the premium hog brush! Lol

I just dont like the smell of the premium brush lol

Lol! The smell of the cleaning solution took some gettin used to...at first it smells like urinal cake, but the absence of piss smell has allowed my mind to separate the 2...lol...

worked on some recent pickups. Heel tabs repainted

Well done
Those taps look like night & day.
I really gotta hop on this Jason Markk bandwagon.

Thanks ha. After getting used to doing suede, it really does work. I don't really hesitate to work on nicer pairs

Very nice work man, especially on the 003's. Couldn't even tell they were a restoration job in the pick up thread!

Any particular paint you used for the tabs? I need some of that.
