Lucky, I was suppose to get mine Monday according to the tracking and it's been sitting in Newark NJ since Friday morning. (I'm in NYC so that's like 45mins away) Estimated shipping date is now blank and it hasn't updated since Friday. FedEx is playing games right now!

Just some black angelus paint and a steady hand are all you need

nice! mind telling me what type of red paint color you used for the wolf grey? so just dip the toothbrush in the paint and flick it the bristle gently? i'm afraid that i ****** up my chukka. haha

PS. will the paint withstand when it get contact with water?

Get some angelus paint and a good paint brush for acrylics at an art store. When you paint, don't tape around the edges and count on it to protect the upper. Just paint very carefully and get as close to the edge as you can. With no tape, you can actually see what's going on.

For the toothbrush technique, dip in paint a little, and rub your thumb along the bristles to make speckles. Do it on a paper first to practice and to get rid of some paint so you don't make big spots on your shoes. Also, wrap paper around the upper and tape it down to the shoe. and make sure all of the upper is covered in tape/paper. And angelus paint is waterproof when dry

Gah, I was waiting for Bodega to post a coupon code because they had my size Tarps a couple days ago but they already sold out. Forgot to check this morning. There's a 20% off everything sale going on now. They have a few sizes of Fogs and almost FSR of blues if anyone's looking.

 

[imthef24nchise]

Anyone know where I can find a pair of Wolf Greys in size 9?

 

[mattblk]

Those black sole Tarps look clean as hell!

I have a pair of Wolf's in a 9.5 that I've worn only a few times. Just picked up a pair of the grey HTM's so I'm not really wearing the Wolf's anymore. Can do $150? LMK!

http://beatniconline.com/collections/nike/products/nike-lunar-flyknit-chukka
$174 shipped. Not much of a discount but I went ahead and went for it. Can't wait for my first pair to arrive.

 

[ez primo]

any sites have tarps in a sz 8?

 

[hreveur]

Got my first pair of flyknit chukkas today, Got a pair of the obsidian blue's for my girl, dont know why people don't really like the blue's as much to me its pretty cool especially with the volt effect. 

The wolf grays are nice, but for some reason I thought they laces would've been whiter from some of the pics ive seen, probably people lace swap? 

Overall shoe is super light it's unbelievable and the lunarlon technology adds to it. 

Pretty happy with purchase, cant see myself buying more than 3 pairs for 170 price tho 

 

[frhighday]

Nice pics, yeah the obsidian/volt combo is really starting to grow on me. However I'm still holding out for FNL to get the wolf greys, I've got a WC Reward burning a hole in my pocket.
