You’re way is essentially a good way of mimicking the outcome of natural wear. Since they’re SB’s skating these, griptape would be rubbing off and even kinda cutting into the shoe giving it that natural way of distressing. I like this way vs the rubbing alcohol method.
+Brandon S That app is a fucking failure. I've copped maybe 3 "hype" releases off that app (got my Wotherspoon AMs, which is prob my all time fav shoe), out of like a thousand.
Chris L. Lucky you, I take straight L’s. The only thing Ive gotten off SNKRS is the Bred 4’s if you can even consider that a win since everyone and their mom got them.
Everyone got the bone color theres even sizes left they made a better color like this and nobody can get them unless u know people or buy em over retail
demetri elenis if you create multiple SNKRS accounts, that'll help a lot with the super hype releases. However, u need a different phone number for each account, so ask ur friends and family. That's how I copped all the hype drops I got on SNKRS. that said, I'm too old for all that, so I just say fuck it and move on to the next release I'm eyeing. Anyways, good luck on the next release! It's not impossible to cop these hype releases (without a bot); it's just very, very, very rare to find success. But it's possible!✌️
Bruh by far you are my favorite youtuber your shoe reviews ars so dope as far as the La 2 Chicago they are a grail shoe 4 me so upset i wasnt able to cop a pair at retail
I think I will be experimenting on these too! I don’t know what I want them to look like but I know I don’t want the lakers color way in perfect condition. Keep up the great content.🔥🔥 can’t wait for that Simpson tee either!!
Love how they look. I would consider doing this but I really wanna keep the Laker color way on mine. I would like to see the NYC to Paris pair done like this though.
I just ordered me a pair, can't wait to get the pair. To see if I feel like keepin em the way they are, or if I'm gonna rub the paint off here and there. I do want the majority of the shoe color to stay purple, tho.🤔
They’re dope like that. I honestly think I like them with red laces lol I got a W on SNKRS so I shall see. Can you guys do a life test for Travis Scott 1s?
got em n had it in mind i wanted them the chicago colorway from the jump. spent two hours on it n they still have hints of purple thru out but overall more reminiscent of the chicago, w some hints of the yellow in the inside for a hidden ironman kind of vibe. i love how it all came out, but the more i see vids of how ppl lettin them naturally fade makes me wish i couldve copped a second pair n done tht too lol
That's actually a good idea, & I'm gonna do it to a pair, but after sanding them, I'm gonna use acetone too, to enhance it a lil more. Been planning on buying them, but bought 700 Static Yeezy's today, so...i guess I'll wait till next payday!😂
They dope. I have both colors but sadly I have too many sneakers to wear these enough to wear them down so it’ll be something I have forever and will just start to change
They look really good. I probably watched 10 videos on people taking the paint off. And without a doubt this looks the best
You haven’t seen mine
Great job I like them even more now. I already secured my pair, plan on wearing the hell out of them.
DirtyBrit Footaction Brooklyn New York raffle
Devon Weekes how did they turn out? After a lot of wear is the paint coming off good?
Do you still have them? Can you give an update?
This is distressing done perfectly. Adds so much character to the shoe!
Can’t wait for the drop. Wishing y’all luck
Jonah G i got a W in Europe for the lightbones
Same to you g! Let the sneaker gods be with us this AM
Caught a W
I mess wit it, hopefully you can get more of the Chicago colorway with every wear. Dope vid brudda, keep grinding.💯
You won't unless you actually skate in them
So happy I got these!! 🔥
Just copped! It looks sweet! Looking forward to using griptape to wear the Lakers layer off
That’s a perfect start and as they keep gettin worn more and more, they’re gonna be even better like u said
Looks awesome! Really glad you guys finally did this video!
Anyone know who this Mikey Dabs is that he gives credit to at 2:00? Trying to get as many looks as I can before starting on mine.

Doooope!! Great idea!!🔥🔥🔥
These go hard🔥
I love what you did with them, i planned on going the same route when I cop.
This looks dope!!! Definitely gonna try this! You use just a normal nail file?
Dope video bro 🔥💯
So upset I missed on these! I got the light bone colorway and the Nike Sb blazers and Janowskis I’ll be doing this to in my upcoming video
Great job bro bro! 🤘🏾
You made them super dope, can’t wait to cop today🙌
Juicy Dru what you mean? Where you copping?
Looks dope🔥💯
Def a fun pair man. Good stuff.
Awesome look!!! Good job!
Can you please do the same thing for the nyc to paris? Been searching for ideas on how to distress mine.
Like em... But I failed on the SNKRS app :(

Also took an L...
Reps here I come!!
Damn, wasn’t gonna get these. Thanks for attacking my wallet.
Bruh by far you are my favorite youtuber your shoe reviews ars so dope as far as the La 2 Chicago they are a grail shoe 4 me so upset i wasnt able to cop a pair at retail
Way to think outside the box ! Waiting on mine from goat probably going to wear my la color for a bit. Stay up Foamie 🔥
Yo those look so dope - Great job fellas!!!
While I prefer a more natural patina on my footwear, this was well executed and creative. Bravo gentlemen
Do a sum up of the best sneakers on sale right now or another video for summertime sneakers please
Would like to see how it looks like after the top paint wears out naturally
They came out great. Looks very natural. Took it to the next level of hype.
THATS AWSOME!!!!
This is the best way to rock this shoe. Nicely done boys.
I think I will be experimenting on these too! I don’t know what I want them to look like but I know I don’t want the lakers color way in perfect condition. Keep up the great content.🔥🔥 can’t wait for that Simpson tee either!!
👍🏿 but where did u get that shirt from
Thats the way to do em! Now can yall do the same for the NY to Paris pair?
Wow!!! That look sooo good. Now i want a pair.Great job guys
I remember suggesting this style, turned out dope 🔥
I wasn't lucky enough to grab a pair in my size however this is EXACTLY why I wanted them. They turned out great!
Pure fire flames🔥🔥🔥very nice...
Nice in your opinion which should I get spider man Jordan 1 or nike sb Lakers Jordan 1?
almost 5 years later and i was finally able to get a DS pair.... im very tempted to do the same to mine.
They look fucking dope! The detail is good and did them justice
I'm still trying to decide if I'm going to age mine organically or scuff mine up like you all did. Your pair looks pretty good.
Just watched this video all I can say is Wow you guys did a great job
Toss the red laces in and watch how much they pop now. Believe me
Josh Babbitt stg
Love how they look. I would consider doing this but I really wanna keep the Laker color way on mine. I would like to see the NYC to Paris pair done like this though.
Marcus Williams im on the same page, im keeping the Laker color way for a hot minute then ill switch it up once i feel like its time.
Quick question, with the time the purple color will fall apart?
I just ordered me a pair, can't wait to get the pair. To see if I feel like keepin em the way they are, or if I'm gonna rub the paint off here and there. I do want the majority of the shoe color to stay purple, tho.🤔
where you get yours bro , I'm trying to cop some too ?
@@superbad001992 I ordered from Stockx.
They’re dope like that. I honestly think I like them with red laces lol I got a W on SNKRS so I shall see. Can you guys do a life test for Travis Scott 1s?
Those are fire 🔥!!
Good way to experiment. Might do it like this to my lightbones
They look fireeee. I would’ve used the same tools to produce that same scraped look but just expose more of the Chicago color way
Fire! But I couldn't help but wonder if a Mr. Clean Magic Eraser would work... Hmm 🤔
Shaun Johnson don’t ruin them if u win just wear the shit out of them
@@VentureTime_ow It was just a thought. Of course I'd wear the shit out of them. 🤣🤙🏼
When are you doing them tie dye videos
Looks dope, you should rock them with the red laces.
Love it. That's just what it needed
If the SNKRS app wasn't Nike. It would have 1 star reviews
Can’t hate on this - def looks more natural than others that have tried to take off some of the LA color
These look like a custom pain job on a race car! WELL DONE! 👏🏼😯
Question. Do you double up on sone sneakers to have the ones you beat up and keep a fresh pair or no?
They look great!
Good luck y’all!
I want to preserve the Lakers colorway any advice
I love what you've done with them! They look like what u expect a skate trainer to look like. 🙏👌🤘
It has more character now. I love what you did
I like the background music y'all put in the video tho
Steel wool is perfect for this!
Check out bulletrc's review. Just seen him actually use steel wool to perfection on these. 🤷♂️
All you need is a slight grit to take off the paint some. It would be perfect and smooth instead of wearing away the leather like sand paper.
Josh Babbitt thanks for pointing that out. I stand corrected! 😅
@@TheEzwider88 for sure my dudes! Have a good one bro and good luck copping that future 🔥🔥🔥
Josh Babbitt what grit of steel wool??
got em n had it in mind i wanted them the chicago colorway from the jump. spent two hours on it n they still have hints of purple thru out but overall more reminiscent of the chicago, w some hints of the yellow in the inside for a hidden ironman kind of vibe. i love how it all came out, but the more i see vids of how ppl lettin them naturally fade makes me wish i couldve copped a second pair n done tht too lol
I like this look.. I may go for this look also
this is a must 🔥🔥🔥
I think ima do this to my pair
Thanks for the idea, foamie
You fucked up, shun...
Nah, they look dope. Mission Accomplished!
Looks fire ⛽️⛽️
where did you get that shirt bro?
I like ‘em. Dope video! I definitely want to cop a pair.
A job well done! Love the look! And now technically they belong to Buckets! He did all the hard work, as a reward you should give it to Young Buckets!
They look fire now!
Really dope :D
well done on the distressing... I'm stressing I didn't get this pair from nike as usual
I'm doing the same thing if I can cop today. Also, how you gonna have buckets do all the work on your shoe😂
Steven Blake where you copping?
Yeah this is dope🔥🔥🔥🔥 I love the idea. So bummed I couldn't get a pair to review on the channel😭
I think they look dope asf with the scuffs
These aj1’s r super dope. I definitely like what u guys did with em. They look semi beat up 👍🏼👌🏼
Dope af! Going to do the same concept when mine come in! #doubleup
K_Dilla did u end up doubling up?
Dumb question can you rub the laker colorway back on?
JoeValentine2 no
Theyre dope and I plan on doing the same thing with my pair
Fantastic !!! Sooooo much better now....
Listen.. those are pure 🔥🔥🔥. I liked the idea of just turning them into Chicago 1’s but this is better.
Yeah tried to get a pair off snkrs, left with a fat L, my friend didnt even get a chance to try they instantly sold out :(
Best thing is keeping all the colors visible IMO.
That's actually a good idea, & I'm gonna do it to a pair, but after sanding them, I'm gonna use acetone too, to enhance it a lil more. Been planning on buying them, but bought 700 Static Yeezy's today, so...i guess I'll wait till next payday!😂
What about Converse Erx Impress? What do you think of these?
This man got the RuneScape music in the background lol.
Came out perfect
They dope. I have both colors but sadly I have too many sneakers to wear these enough to wear them down so it’ll be something I have forever and will just start to change
Another hit from the Workshop! What up Foamer! #PeaceFromDaWoods
I feel like you should keep the color or do it like this. If you strip away all the color, you might as well just have the Chicago 1s 🤷🏾♂️
Nice touch with the "Nigel" dressed look 👍
These are the best ones i think i might do this to mine
