They are but fortunately only the brown laces were used. There's nothing that bad but I like to make them shine. Any ideas how to fix those washed-out red stripes?

Hmm been a crazier month for me than normally i guess and got these today. Now i know for sure i can't and won't get any more supes until i've got a job or perhaps in December when i've got my tax refund.
I know i'll probably need to go to the corner for getting those JD's black PTs but i've always liked them. Aaand they cost me a massive 0 € so they're well worth the price for me. All because a mate owed me a favour so i asked him to get me those.
@ ez: I think there are some suede & nubuck conditioners out there which will/should restore the original colours of the leather. Ask some local shoe store for more info unless anyone here knows better. The possible downside is they're usually colour specific and i'm not sure whether there is an option for red suede.

Yeh decided to flip the laces of the vins because the original ones weren't the very soft kind vin laces usually are.

The black nubuck SSII PT's (# G05143) are a JDsports exclusive in the UK and most of Europe it seems as didn't come across them in any other legit European shop when I was looking for them more actively some months back. All sizes have now been sold out in JD's online store but one might still find a pair in any actual JD store just like my pair was last week. For the US market at least DrJays still has them.
