I thought they looked pretty cool with the icey soles as well but cant stand that they will turn yellow after a while so dyeing them is a must for me

frags colorway will retro most likely... it will not have the lightning bolt of course but i believe the colorway will retro

I wish there was never a lightning bolt in the first place. That damn collab made them so hard to get
If they were just "royal blacktoes" things would be different. Such a great colorway

I noticed that the sock liner faded a little after heat setting (gac 900 method). Anyone else notice this?

those laser royals came out nice

Yup, I noticed that today while I was working on my pairs. I first started with the sock liner, finished heat setting on Wednesday. I then acetoned the uppers and thought the faded appearance probably came from the cottons swabs leaving some lint. But now I know they did in fact fade just a bit.

I am debating copping another pair from DTLR or just holding off a bit longer.

Might as well since the sizes are starting to disappear, I know I would if they had my size

Ok so it's not just me. I don't know if I want to go back and put another coat. Also, as a tip, just use regular paint for the tag because the gac mixture is way too watery to do the lettering. Also just paint the whole tag black first because if you try to get around it, you're going to leave some of the tag white or just get black paint on the lettering anyways.

i put like 4 coats of black on my inner liner and it always fades a little (50-50 method). I thought i was because i just left them out and dust got on them but its not.

50-50 as in 50 paint and 50 water? Or 1:1 paint-gac 900? If that's the case, I won't bother putting another layer I guess.

IME dyeing suede black is difficult to do, doesn't seem to come out jet black. Seems like the same type of situation with the liner.
