It's worked out weightoo heavy.
Gonna try and slim the depth down by around half and bring the edges in a bit.
This ones in silver and weighs an ounce.
Gonna see if I can get a stamp made and bash 'em out as that'd be the cheapest option.

That's the second time today I've done that.

That looks dope. I can't wait to see all the pics of kicks with these on 'em in the "Today i'll mostly be wearing superstars" thread.

Looking real good Pureski, but we also need some pics with this beauty properly laced in a pair of SS...
pleeeeeeeeease!!!

Calm down, it's only a commercial !
I'm working on something at the moment, but I'l do it in a little while and see what it looks like.
It can't stay like this though as it's way too heavy and would cost a bloody fortune.

Lookin wikid mr. p!
Any rough idea on a price - are we still talking around the £4 mark that was mentioned previously?
- mr.pure - 05-10-06
Possibly in aluminium if I get the weight of this fucker down.
- mr.pure - 05-10-06
I don't think you lot are going to be able to handle this !
- mr.pure - 05-10-06
There they go !!
They need bending and some other mod's cos I hadn't left enough spave to get the laces through.
Neither is it polished properly.
Got 2 options to reduce the weight and thus the cost.
1. Make 'em half as thick.
2. Leave the squared ends on for the laces but cut the rest out leaving the SuperstarDB in place.
Vote now please.

They look cool as fuck mr.pure

The business is hurtling in !
Phones ringing off the hook.
It's a melt down.

Fuckin hell that looks well good mate, you're a genius!
As for weight loss, cutting out the logo would save a lot but would that be a bit too labour intensive? You could hollow out the back a bit maybe or even loose some of the metal along the top and bottom edge like this:

Looking bloody good though!

Nice photoshopping dude.
I'm thinking of doing a combination of cutting 'em out and halving the depth.
I could get 'em done in Stainless Steel but they nwould be a bastard to keep clean.
Aluminium won't polish.
Silver is the best looking option by far.

cutting them out would make 'em stand out more I recon... I must say though, they look pretty dope like this too..... Nice one Pure, real nice!
