Cheers chaps.
Plenty more in the pipeline.
Need to find me a plentiful supply of cheap white 80s.

Awesome CW Sir P.
Could be "cleaner" though but you gotta love that yellowed/gum toe and blue&white CW. I believe next will be even better.

Yo, so I'm not exactly sure I understand what you did... removed the out layer of leather so you could custom dye the shoe? At first I thought it was a suede shoe you were trying to dye...?

Yeah, they were regular leather and instead of just wiping the surface with alcohol, so I could paint it, I actually wore away the surface until it looked like suede/nubuck.
Then dyed it !

So Pure, how would you go about actually changing the material itself?

Jesus tittyfuckin christ! That is the wankest, most half-arsed custom job I've ever seen. It doesn't even look like one pair of shoes, the two designs are totally unrelated. But both are utter shit.
