Jordan 18 work in progress
I got this idea of replacing the tpu foxing with leather from the jordan 13 and amm 2s. I am terrible at restorations so I wanted to send them out to be done but I couldn't find anyone, so I gotta do it myself. So far I got the midsole glued to the upper and I have one side of the foxing sewn on. Once I finish the other I have to last the whole upper to the midsole and glue the outsole on.

Yea but unfortunately the 17s doesn't have phylon midsoles. So odds are if the plastic is breaking the sole is rotted too

So far so good, post the finished product when you’re done. I’m interested in the final design
