Fuck-bake! I haven't worn my IBs for a while now. You got me all paranoid. Gonna check mine as soon as I get home, make sure they're ok.

[olstar]

ive heard of this happening loads to the IB's..

never seen any in the flesh so wouldnt know why they go like that..

are they a different material to the normal SS?

It's just the dark rubber over time, will happen to most dark shells/soles if they're not worn.

I've got a dark pair and they went like that, I just take them out of the box and give them a wipe down with a soft cloth with a tiny drop of olive oil on it - I find that works every time. Also, it does help to stop the rubber from drying out.


And then I wrap them back up and tell them a bedtime story and check every hour if they are still asleep and that they are safe!!!!

I think they look awesome as they are, leave them and get wearing them, they aint supposed to be kept in boxes !!

Anyway, they don't fit me. They're the Wife's.

Seriously, these were a special present. As were mine.
Mine don't fit me either as it happens. I'm waiting for another pair.
