Great quality
Amazing! Went on smoothly, dried quickly, holding up great. I bought a pair of Nike shoes from Goodwill. I do this often to use as work shoes since I don’t like to pay full price for work sneakers when I will then just step in a patient’s bodily fluids in them. While washing these five dollar second hand shoes, imagine my surprise when as I scrubbed, my hands turned black because the previous owner had colored the sides of the white soles with a black marker. I had no idea until they were submerged in water. I tried unsuccessfully to fill in the missing black smeared parts with sharpie until googling to find this product. I thought this was going to be a DIY disaster, but this marker went on smoothly to color in the sides of the soles. They look exactly like they did when I bought them. It looks like the soles were black to begin with. I got so excited that I went through all of my other running shoes to see if any of them needed a black trim touchup. The stuff goes on like a dream and is pretty fool proof. Even for me.

Worked GREAT!
Worked great on my multicolored sandals. I put on 3 coats but didn't want to put on another coat, you can barely see the colors and no one is going to look that closely. They remained flexible. Had to order another pen, the fabric absorbed a lot.

It does work great but not the best especially for the price.
I collect used shoes throughout the year to fix up like new and donate to school kids of families in need and distribute them the week before school starts. I'm on my 4th year doing this and am on target to have 150 pair ready by August this year so I've used MANY of these shoe whitening pens. This one is perfectly ok and does do it's job. Considering it's 1 pen for $10, this one is not my favorite. I have slightly more trouble with leaking out of the lines (I don't use tape, I've never needed to before) than I do with the others I've used. But if you need one and need it quickly, this will absolutely work! You can see how dirty and stained the outsole was before using this pen and I was able to cover it all with only 2 coats.

Great for quick touchups on midsoles
Great for touchups. I use it on my Ultraboosts with white midsoles, and they look really good in black. After heavy use, like at a music festival, they need a bit of a refresh, but one pen can cover about two full pairs of shoes. Easy to use and dries cleanly.

A love hate relationship with it
I ordered a pair of Volatile sneakers on Ebay. Why their description is impossible to see, and not a part of the actual description section, is beyond me. But I digress. I ended up ordering a pair of brown (gag) shoes. Everything i own is black. I think i have maaaaaybe one brown shirt, maybe. So I searched Amazon for something to help me change my new shoes and quick! I came across this marker to change the sole color. I liked how it was a paint type marker, but because Volatile shoes have a foam sole, I struggled. I couldn't just slide the marker back and forth as intended, I had to hold the tip down, let the paint come out, and swipe it across with my finger. Pretty tedious. Once I got to the rubber part, it went by MUCH quicker and easier. I ordered for overnight I believe. Either way, it arrived on Halloween. I needed then for the following day, Saturday. Application was simple enough, I also had to do the suede which was an ordeal. My only problem is when I stepped off my porch the next day. I almost busted my s***. My rubbery tread was no more. This made my tread feel like hard plastic. I was legit slipping on CONCRETE. Zero grip, zero traction. It was the equivalent of wearing high heels on frozen ground. I tried to rub the bottoms on the rocky part of my driveway, trying to get a little traction back. They sounded like clunky high heels. For anyone who isn't familiar with Volatile shoes, they're sole is foam with a rubber tread at the bottom. They're VERY lightweight platform sneakers. I have multiple pairs, and have never had a problem. Its not this specific pair, when I tried them off the day before Halloween, I had no problem. I did like the color, the ease of application, and that it arrived right when I needed it. But I'm not happy with it turning my shoes into ice skates. If you dont need to do the bottom tread, you're golden! But they will stiffen up and feel different, so keep that in mind

Paint marker is trash/ waste of money
This marker is trash, i was shaking the pen like instructions say and the marker tip fell off, the paint is clumpy. It looks like i used white out on my tennis , it does Not cover well. Leaves lines. Save your money for new tennis

Great product. I got this for repainting my Jordans with faded or peeling paint. It worked awesome. The tip helped tremendously with the small details. And you press on the tip for more paint flow when needed, which helps control the flow. I'd recommend this product because I'd buy it again if i needed more without hesitation.

I’d tried washing my favorite Lacoste sneakers, I then tried anti-oxidants but nothing worked to de-taint the yellow aging midsoles. Until this wonderful white marker made it so simple to restore my middle aged loafers to their youthful prime. Just mask the upper, press the nib and a few coats later, well take a look!! The bottom is the old colour, the sides are the brand spanking new. And the pen should be good for two more pairs. Job done!
