<blockquote> <blockquote> you guys have way more choices down there, up here, it's slim pickins - the ladies are mostly pastel colours (as opposed to nice earth tones or primary colours) and/or are shaped like hovercrafts. </blockquote> for nike at least, the women's colourways have been killing the mens side. It has been mostly neutrals and earth tones for the last few years w/ nike. It seems they've run out of ideas really, and the only time I feel anything of theirs is when classic colourways are retro'ed (ie. air max pack).<br /><br /><br />I also think everybody should have a staple pair of clean white sneakers in their wardrobe, my choice are stan smiths. But they gotta stay clean....... </blockquote><br />I agree with this, for me it's AF1 lows though. Also bought the 95's in women size, white on white with a gum sole, but I haven't worn them yet.<br /><br /> <br /><br />From JoeMojo:<br /><blockquote> Rocking white sneakers out in Seattle anytime before June is a recipe for disaster... </blockquote><br /><br />I can't remember if I ever posted it on here but I know I PM'ed it to a couple people, it's the easy recipe for how I keep white shoes sparkling.<br /><br />You'll need an old toothbrush, an old washcloth, an old towel, baking soda, and WHITE-COLORED whitening toothpaste.<br /><br />Step 1. Use the washcloth and clean off the easy-to remove surface dirt under hot water. <br /><br />Step 2. Dip the toothbrush into the whitening toothpaste and get into the dirt that the washcloth couldn't get off, brush the outsoles hard but go a little gentler on the leather..<br /><br />Step 3. Now dip into the baking soda while the toothpaste is still rubbed on. Rub the baking soda in and get a good froth going, it should look like a rabid raccoon's mouth though I've never seen a rabid raccoon so I could be wrong about that. <br /><br />Step 4. Wipe everything off with the towel, then rinse it and wipe it again. Do a section at a time, left, right, front, and back since the last two are usually the dirtiest.<br /><br />That's it. Whole thing takes maybe 15 minutes for both shoes. I find it works better than those cleaners they give you at Footlocker, for whatever reason. I've been doing this a long time and extended the freshness of a lot of shoes this way. Try it.
