Sole Bright

So i have a pair of Jordans I absolutely love and i wanted to bring them back to life because the clear parts are all yellow because they were under the sun and I looked up ways to do it and was recommended this product by AI on Brave and man, after looking up the instructions on how to apply this thing, I have to admit, it works and I love it! You may need to do it a few times which takes you about a good 15 min and put it under the sun for 2 hrs but its worth it. It's a process. Way better than spending $250 on a brand new pair when you can use this for $12 and bring it back to life. Also would recommened getting the Mink Oil if you are touching up leather or suede shoes to bring it back to life even more and protect.

What a simple product to use. Good clear instructions on use. I used on some yellowing Air Force One soles due to the reviews of this product. Pros: Easy to use. No smell. No left over greasy feel or residue. Works in White soles that have yellowed. Does not run, stocked to surface in the right amount. Cons: You have to be patience, depending on how yellowed your soles are. It took me 3 applications over two days to get white I was satisfied with. Needs UV rays either need a lot of sun outside or setup a home UV light setup. Over all a good product, the instructions do say you may have to do several applications. I found it does help to move the shoe just a little or rotate to a different position while in the sun. I did notice some shadowing in some spots of the shoes. Took me 2 days just do because I could only do during the day time. Make sure you also clean your shoes of any dirt and grime. It will block the sunlight. You do need tape and clear plastic wrap. I didn’t notice any drying of the product while it was in the sun under wrap. But this was done about 4 hrs each time. Over all satisfied with results and will reorder again.

Four pictures "Before", and four pictures "After". It works. Period. I had to figure out my process by some trail and error, but I finally dialed it in. This pair was a bit hurried, but three other pair where I did not have "before" pics came out mint! What you need: 1. Nitrile gloves and protective eyeware. 2. A small detailing/paint brush. 3. Plastic kitchen wrap. 4. Clear packing tape. 5. 3.5 gallon clear zip lock bags 6. Some cotton rags 7. Running water Here's how I did it. 1. This stuff is strong, so make sure you wear nitrile gloves! It would be smart to wear safety glasses! 2. Put some product on your gloved hand and gently and carefully smooth it onto the sole areas that need whitening. Use a small detailing brush to get right up against the upper of the sneaker. But DON'T get it on the upper of the sneaker. 3. Lay out a flat piece of wrap lenghtwise with 1ft extra at the front and back of the shoe. 4. Wrap the sneaker in plastic kitchen wrap. Keeping only one layer of film on the solr, bring the sides up first, then bring the front up to the tongue, then bring the back up and over the opening to the tongue. Tape the front up tight to the tongue. Tape around the heel tight to the sides., Don't bunch the wrap on the sole area. Try to wrap tight on the upper part of the shoe to keep the moisture in. 4. Please the shoes in a 3.5 gallon zip lock bag. Again to keep the moisture in. 5. Face the soles/sides/front/back towards the sun and let it cook. No less than 3-4 hours on each side that needs whitening. Adjust the shoes to track the sun so that you get even coverage. 6. When you look through the bag/wrap and see gleaming white shoes, you know they're done. 7. With nitrile gloves on, carefully remove the shoes from the zip lock bag. Wash the bag if you have more shoes to brighten. 8. Carefully remove and dispose of the plastic wrap. Do not get any of the product on you, furniture, or other surroundings. 9. While cold water is trickling, gently take a cotton rag and carefully rinse the product off without getting the upper wet. Use a tiny brush to clean any treads in the bottom of the sole being very careful to not flick product towards your face. 10. After carefully rinsing the product away, use another cotton rag to dry the soles. Set your shoes somewhere to dry where any water or missed product won't ruin the surface. 11. Wear your dunks and smile! You're not an NPC! Lessons learned. 1. Don't underestimate how strong this product is. Use gloves and eye protection! 2. Don't be cheap with the kitchen wrap, tape, brush, rags, or zip lock bags. 3. Sunny days produce the best results. 4. A UV curing lamp won't do the job. 5. Don't be stingy applying the product, but at the same time don't use so much that it drips and smears onto the upper. That's how I did it. That's what I learned. Good luck!

I bought this to restore the yellowed soles on my sneakers, and initially, I was blown away. After applying the product and letting it sit in the sun as directed, the difference was night and day—my soles looked almost brand new and icy white again. However, I’m giving this 4 stars because the results didn't hold up very long. After just a few days, I noticed the yellow tint starting to creep back in. To be fair, it is possible I am doing something wrong (maybe I didn't seal them properly afterward or need more sessions?), so I am going to run some more tests and adjust my method. Pros: • Incredible initial results; clears up oxidation very well. • Easy to apply. Cons: • Results seem temporary; yellowing returned quickly for me. I will update this review if I find a way to make the results permanent!

Great product! The soles of my white Vans were completely yellow, but this was a total game-changer. (See the pictures). I highly recommend following the instructions exactly for the best results.

It works temporarily. I can’t remember for how long

I honestly thought these midsoles were a lost cause, but Sole Bright literally brought them back from the dead! If you have yellowed soles sitting in your closet, stop scrolling and buy this now. It’s like a time machine for your sneakers. Seeing that crisp, icy white come back after just one session was incredibly satisfying. My rotation feels brand new again. 10/10! Why I love it: • Restoration: It doesn't just 'clean'—it actually reverses the yellowing. • Ease of Use: Apply, wrap, and let the sun (or UV light) do the work. • Value: One bottle will easily save 5–10 pairs of shoes, saving me hundreds on new kicks.

Used in two pair of AF1. The one in the picture is after the application, but before I thought it was lost, soles were completely yellow. After two applications of the product with the instructions in their youtube video, the soles are almost as I want them, going for a third and final application. Found that the product only works in direct sunlight.
