These got RAN OVER… or at least that’s what it looked like 😭

• Customer swore he was fine… but the shoes told a different story
• Deep scuffs + heavy drag marks all over the side
• Full clean + icing brought these MCA’s back to life

Not perfect… but WAY too good for the trash

Would you still wear these after? 👇

Trying something new with the team…

Gave Diego full creative control to film a restoration.

No guidance. No script.

Just: “Show me what you got.”

My editor cleaned it up, but all the footage is his.

Destroyed Timbs → restored.

How did he do? 👀

Do these really belong in the landfill? 🤔
Or just in the right hands…

A customer brought in this pair of Nike Air Force 1’s after wearing them as work shoes right out of the box.

• Heavy dirt buildup
• Stained uppers
• Worn down from daily use

Instead of tossing them, we gave them a deep clean at BTB Kicks.

They’re not factory fresh again…
but they’re 1,000x better than where they started.

♻️ Proof that most sneakers don’t need to be replaced — they just need to be restored.

💰 $1,000 SNEAKERS… COOKED.
🧼 BTB Kicks… RESTORED.

These designer joints were COMPLETELY dogged out 😭
Dirt packed in, midsoles smoked, uppers crying for help.

Most people would’ve retired these.
We brought them back to life.

At the end of the day it’s not about the price tag, it’s about the process.

This is what we do every single day at BTB Kicks.

Luxury or everyday beaters…
If they can be saved, we’re saving them.

NOT AFFILIATED WITH ANY BRANDS SHOWN
