 I knew I was gonna alter them from the moment I saw the first pics. I just added a few other details.

If these red ones are still around in a while, I may get them eventually. I definitely like the looks of them, just don't know how much I would wear them (I do wish the strap was red though)

What kind of paint/acrylics did you guys use? any specific method?

Man - i think you ruined this CW for me - would always look down at my shoes wishing they looked like these - great job with the paint

Thanks fellas.
LegendarySeason - I can only speak for myself, but I used white Angelus paint on the uppers and black Createx on the swoosh and midsole accents. I think the uppers took 4 lights coats, 2 coats on the swoosh, and 1 coat on the midsole accents. I normally use some duller on Angelus because it's got a sheen to it when it dries, but it looked fine on these so I painted it as-is.

I broke down and just bought a pair (reds that is).  I really can't b'ch for $90. 

Still not feeling Orions on any level, but very fine custom jobs on both of those.

I just refuse to pay $60 or > for a shoe and pay someone or spend extra time completely changing/customizing it, under any circumstances. 

Again, just me right now.  But again, great looking jobs on both.

I hope I can still find a pair of freshwaters. Gonna try to have Footaction and Footlocker stock locate for me. After getting these varsity reds, I'm on a mission to hunt down the freshwaters and volts. Amazing shoe.
