Icy Sole Restoration & Oxidation Removal
Yellowed soles kill a pair's whole look — and no amount of scrubbing fixes oxidation. The Ice Lab's chemical de-yellowing session brings the blue tint back to Jordans, Foamposites, Yeezys, and clear-bottom kicks.
BeforeAfterSlide to VerifyYellowing is chemistry. So is the fix
Translucent rubber reacts with oxygen and UV light over time and shifts yellow — even on pairs that never left the box. Cleaning alone can't reverse it.
Chemical De-Yellowing
A controlled de-yellowing session made for clear outsoles — not household bleach that damages the rubber.
The Blue Comes Back
Most pairs come back dramatically clearer, with the icy tint visible again.
Any Clear Sole
Jordan 11s, 5s, and 6s, Foamposites, Yeezys, Air Max bubbles, and other translucent bottoms.

Most jobs are completed within 3 to 5 business days. Deep yellowing can need extra treatment time — we confirm the timeline with your quote.
Oxidation is a natural process, so it can slowly return over years of light and air exposure. Proper storage makes a big difference — ask us how to store treated pairs.
