Is there anything to stop clear soles from yellowing?

It's natural. Once it starts, it's over. You can mostly keep it from starting for awhile by keeping them away from water and moisture, because IIRC that's what starts it.

I will say some shoe services offer services to "re-ice" soles and I dont have any familiarity with that process. From what I've seen it almost looks like they paint them, not sure how it holds up over time.

Keep them away from sun when you store them in a well ventilated space. That’s about it. But, there are ways to reverse yellowing on YouTube you can try when they inevitably yellow. Honestly just embrace it, they give the show character sometimes

Ya it’s like rust, wherever there is air, oxidation will occur. So it’s a fools errand to try and keep yellowing off shoes that you wear a lot or have had a long time. I used to hate the icy soles because of the yellowing but now it’s like fukk it. You a OG

Insignificant posting from an insignificant poster
It's been a good run.


Told y'all if I didn't hit on carmines or griffs... i'm bowing out the legit shoe game.


Just deleted SNKRS app since it's inception (7-8 years now?).



To prove it... i just dropped a rack on some Kicks by Bruce Leroy.




Fukk you resellers/nike.




Y'all can eat my ass whole.




Peace.
