good to be back....


Mods...i'll behave i swear....
 
 
Sup FAM!

Justin: Welcome back, Sir! haha



I'm thinking about completing the Undef look by painting the side panels and other panels black...
Here's a PS (my first, so it's a bit sloppy) of what I'm going for... I'm just concerned with the stiffening of the mesh though... 

Can any customizers in the FAM want to chime in about painting mesh (liquidtex)?

My Heinekens will be delivered tomorrow! I'm stoked!
 
mayhem's back! speech! haha.

nwt - maaaaan you shouldn't have posted those just now... on my way to buy some thin socks! lol

Ray - I personally would not recommend painting mesh, but if it's not on the toe box, and you find paint with the right finish that will hold up on the mesh, it might be worth a shot.  I'd try to find some dirt cheap beaters with similar mesh and test with them first, if you can.  good luck.

Ray - there should be a way to get the mesh black, only it'd take lots of layers i imagine. Viet, where u at dream killa?

^ I'd have to agree in regards to JRose. I have no love for his abuse of authority, but I do have love for those lights. very nice indeed. but does a Size? release mean euro exclusive?
 
^^ yeah i saw those Drurys, and they ARE an amazing price... taking offers too!

ILLustRAYt - amazing colour match up on those Stab iDs. i wouldn't do the mesh without practising first either.
Chris - liking those AJIII inspireds. the Supreme idea sounds interesting too.
blakperl - thanks bro. they're iDs i made a couple years ago which didn't come out as planned. i've only worn them 3x as i've never felt 100% about them. i think it's the leather issue.
jranasaurus - always loved that pile pic. don't suppose you have a 16:9 version? i guess i could just crop it if not.
nwt - no worries bro. i just bought myself a DS pair for £60, then the seller refunded me in the morning saying the sole had collapsed on the right shoe. %$#?

btw, nice job on the blog. may be interested in the Gundams depending on how i get on with Shoe Gooing my pair.

blackred/ EentegRa etc - everything i can tell you about customs/ import charges:

almost all big companies/ sellers (like JD, Nike etc) will declare your parcel at the full value and as merchandise, both for 'tax'/ insurance purposes. of course the amount you pay will increase with this value and even if declared as a 'gift' you'll still be susceptible, all this does is raise the allowable limit before you get charged (for UK it's £17, or £32 as gift). on top of this charge you may get a handling fee from the shipping company at your end (we do here anyway) - my last one was £9. along with this joyous sum of money to pay on top for your kicks, customs (or the shipping company) will hold your item for days too which is why you're probably waiting. as far as who does what, Royal Mail (our postal service) deliver to you, then USPS take over in the US. i'm not sure about other couriers. in the UK, if i'm about to get stung, Royal Mail hold the shoes (=delay) then send me a letter to tell me i've got a charge to pay before i can receive my parcel. they can then ship out (more delay) or i can pick up & pay immediately (inconvenience). you see, drivers here don't carry cash any more so there's no more pay on the door option. last year i received a FedEx shipment, their method was to deliver then send me a bill days later - and i thought i had got away with it
