Shonen-Sama! Help me!

Got my orange tiger down jacket dirty, theres thick dust on the sleeves and I'm not sure what to do to get it out. It's 'Specialist-cleaning' only but theres gotta be something I myself can do hopefully.
what do you mean by thick dust on the sleeves? I usually use a clean towel and get it wet but not too wet to clean the whole down jacket when it gets dirty in the rain, dust...etc.
 
Like the kinda stuff thats caked on a surface that's not seen daylight for months! lol.

I know I shouldn't have tried to recreate one of those scenes from Indiana Jones...

Anyhow, I've been told I should get a lint/pethair remover and try that. Think thats a good idea?

Ill try your idea later and hopefully it'll work.

The lint remover might work, try it as it never hurts. :hmm:

Understoodz. Will report back in when it arrives next week. I'll probably try your method tomorrow.

i remember buying a white ponr off a bt2 member abt 3 years ago. shit had white crusty residue on the sleeves... didnt bother washing it. sent it right back and asked for my money lol. dude was a moderator too -_-
 
I had the dreaded t-shirts ruined in the wash moment (I know I should have had it dry cleaned). My girlfriend washed some of my BBC and Bape t-shirts and of course she mixed some colors with the whites and ruined two of my Ts. Luckily the dry cleaners was able to remove the color stains, but now the quality of the shirts are ruined. FML.
 
what would be the best way to wash and dry shirts and hoodies for a dorm room in college? my college is pretty much in the middle of nowhere how could i easily dry my stuff out without risk damaging it but also without risk of losing or it getting stolen by having it outside?
 
Hang them in your closet with a couple inches between each T. I do this at home and they dry fine over night. They really don't need to hang outside.
 
Shirts are generally dry over night. I honestly never wash my hoodies but couldn't seem them taking much longer. I don't really wash jeans either haha. Unless your partying hard in them just febreeze them a bit and hang them to dry.
 
look i've been telling people this for years..........if you can't pay 5 bucks to get this stuff dry cleaned then you don't need to be buying it.......just go in and tell them "hand wash air dry please"..........
 
Dry cleaning is bullshit. Unless you can find someone you know or really trust, they are going to look at your Bape shit no differently than they look at Fubu and throw that shit in the washer and dryer.

There is nothing wrong with people wanting to care for the items they spend lots of hard earned money on. Or in some cases their parents hard earned money haha.
 
Hey guys sorry if its in the wrong section, didnt know where to post this havent been on in awhile. Just a quick question do you guys suggest buying used Bapes that are kind of dirty? My worry is the inside of the sneakers. I just want them for beaters. Is there any good way of cleaning them really well in the inside?

Take a whiff and if they stink, I'd pass. If they actually have dirt on the inside, I'd pass. If they are damaged on the inside, you could use after market insole.

At the bowling ally's, where shoes are shared, they use industrial strength lysol to kill any germs or fungus like athletes foot. good luck!!!!
