Rubber Sole De-yellowing
Refresh Your Sneakers with Rubber Sole De-yellowing!
Rubber soles can oxidise over time, developing a yellowish tint due to exposure to dirt, moisture, and everyday wear. Our de-yellowing service is designed to brighten and restore the look of your rubber soles by reducing discolouration, helping them appear cleaner and fresher. Our process significantly improves the appearance, giving your sneakers a refreshed, revitalized feel.
Note: The pricing quoted is the minimum expected price, should an additional amount be required our team will notify you of this charge before work is completed.

I took my Air Forces in as the outer sole had turned yellow. I am really happy with the outcome, my soles are back to being white and look brand new!
