How's Angelus work though, if you were to scuff or stain the shoe and use Jason Markk would that strip the paint? Thanks again man.

Interesting to note that he uses a mix of water + paint for the sock liner and tongue, rather than gac-900 + paint + heat gun. Angelus says in the comments that the water + paint combo means the tongue isn't as stiff as using gac-900.

I was wondering the same thing. Hmm i used the 900 and its not stiff at all, i might try the water method see whats up.

Isn't the gac-900 the best thing to use since it prevents the paint from cracking, breathability and also long term durability?

I used the 50/50 method and the results weren't stiff at all. Now i just gotta grab a detail paint brush and I'm done. Stencils came but they're worthless.

Can you keep us update with how the sockliner and tongue holds up with the 50/50 method? I kinda don't want to have to buy a heat gun and GAC lol.
If anyone has experiences with both, which one is better to do?

Haha. I just found out we have some JJs in chicago. They don't really carry size 14 online so I doubt they would in store. I'll call around in the morning though.

I got mine DS for 150. It's better than retail plus tax. I probably should've checked my local JJ tho. I'll look when I get back from college and probably cop another pair

You can always check out ebay. I saw a bunch for under retail in 14. I was about to buy a 14 since 13 fits tight on me, but I saw a few people say on NT that it's looser because of the material or something.

I paid $140 for my DS size 11 pair on fleaBay. Stoked I got the 6 rings three times on one shoe, but very little on the other shoe.
