thanks Cris, Ron, & Won....
@ Mr. "Heads Up"
Ron - turned 27 today, btw...u gotta start getting in on these sunday/monday NFL wagers too
i'm not gonna go through with the dremel process to strip the patent and then try to get a suede-like finish, don't know how well that would turn outwith the stitched areas....just gonna use some acetone and strip the shiny layer off to leave it with just a smooth leather finish.....Thanks for the tipsV
from ebay....ehhh....not a fan....

Shaun - no doubt....i'm gonna hit a hardware store soon and see if i can get it done asap.
Airon - thanks fam
another pic....kinda makes them look slightly better, i like the red tongue but i wish they would have kept it suede instead of changing to leather and keptthat back piece brown with red writing....
original sample...

SDUBL- Maybe the Brown area got the 3M treatment? Definitely have to see these up close.

Justin - nice pickup. I really like those minus the patent and air minimum midsole. I'm interested to see how they turn out.
how many versions of those DQMs are there!?!?! I'd like to see them in person but brown and pink are not my favorite colors. I'd like to see that shoein a simple maize colorway though...

Thanks guys, appreciating all the love.
Greg - dope lights....and it's coming soon
Sling - dope pickups dude
Arisorous - it's the currency conversion that makes the EU releases more expensive for us U.S. folk...retailrelatively stays the same, just in different currencies.
...just came back from the hardware store, copped that DS acetone. Gonna do a small area as a test before i leave work...then finish it up later if i'm nottoo inebriated

anytime, too bad it'll sitll be like, plasticy, that dremel idea would be dope, but you're right about the stitching....you could justavoid the area, or chuck it up as a L if you do go over the stitching, and processed to reglue the shoe back...i'm just sayin...Originally Posted by Mayhemgatz
Thanks for the tips V
i think i would only mess with those 90 hybrids in the red only for cheap....just bought some carmine jordans off of craigslist today so that burned ahole...but 160$....and i actually like em....so yea that was ok........

I tried on the Parra's today and was not feeling them on my feet. It's a nice shoe, but an easy pass. Damn shoe came with 2 extra packs of laces. Lol
