Black Cat Jordan 4 Cleaning Tutorial
The comment section has blown up about this sneaker for years and let's just say this cleaning has been a long time coming! On Today's episode we brought in the mastermind himself to take on the Black Cat Air Jordan 4s. This cleaning tutorial will show you all of the do's and don'ts, the possible challenges and some solid results.
These might be one of the best Jordan 4s to ever release, but man they are rising in price quick! To take on this cleaning Vick relied on the Signature Shoe Cleaning Kit. For the first step as always you have to take the little elements out to give them the best clean possible. Vick relies on the air compressor to remove the surface dirt, but let us tell you that you do NOT have to have a compressor to get these results.
Once the surface dust was removed we used the pretreatment to give these sneakers a quick and effective clean. The 3 different brushes and Natural Solution work as a dynamic duo to breakdown the staining and create a lot of suds to bring the nubuck back to life. Now before you even say it... Yes he said he was putting them in the washing machine 🤯
The sneaker was fully flushed out with the laundry system plus it not smells 100X better. One thing to note is that this material didn't bleed; which tells us the quality of these is solid. They don't make them like this anymore! The final touches are to pay attention to the detail to give your sneakers the best look. Using a lint shaver is 100% optional, but it helps a lot.
Finally, even though it didn't bleed color, there was a little bit of an ashy vibe, so to recondition the materials Vick used Mink Oil. Mink Oil not only revives the nubuck, but it conditions the materials and makes them last for longer.
Let us know in the comments what you thought about today's video and what you want us to clean up next.

they lwk look cool when they were dirty. the mocha brown of the dirt is a nice colour and the way the actual black shines through adds some nice texture

Hey yo vick I've been a fan for 6-7 years, I love your work. Its the best I've seen. And I would love to give a helpful tip whenever you work on Jordan 11s. instead of using mink oil for the patent leather, use the crystal clear. Reason I say that is when you use mink oil your only bringing back the color not that shine. So I recommend using crystal clear and the buffing tool to bring back the shine, because if it makes paint look glossy then I bet it'll do wonders on patent leather. Anyway, love the video keep up the good work.

Sup?! I'm from Brazil, we don't have your products here. Unfortunately. I have an Air Jordan 5 "Space Jam" I really wanted to restore it, but I'm going to have several problems The leather has holes on the sides, the sole has come off and the rubbers on the midsole are already crumbling, not to mention the classic problem of the transparent parts of the sole turning mustard-colored. I would love to fix this classic. For everything he represents.
