BTW, has anyone taken these apart yet? I would love to see how they are made.
You can clone the markpoon soles with RTV silicone mold and inject the transparent compound.
I suggest you re evaluate what you are saying... What that will be is re casting and will get you or anyone else banned before you know what hit you.

Here is my pair that just arrived! I "cleaned" em up a bit but they are well worth the price and that company deserves an award for having GREAT customer service! I REALLY am pleased with them! Ordered another pair to SLICE & DICE!! Need LED El Strap!! lol

I can see your point mate, but then again I bought my specific pair as I like the look and aesthetics of them, also intend to wear them as they are as regular shoes. But like Mcfly said, if someone can alter them on the cheap to make them more like the originals then power to them. And with the breadth of talent thats on these boards I cant see why someone couldnt do it.
Im looking forward to seeing what NickFox does with his, I imagine he will show us him taking them apart so we can have a look then.
did you use a paint pen on the back of the mag writing and the little plastic part where the led should be?
what pen did you use?
i feel like getting some paint pens and making them all white.
Yes! I used a light BLUE pen on the "MAG" logo, colored the tri-LED part WHITE instead of the Deep Sea BLUE it was, then tried a few WHITE squares on the sole part. Not bad when all done! They feel good and solid and I have already received compliments on them!
Guys, got some good news. Had a message from the guy who made these saying that they are working on improvements including 'icey soles' and better colours/materials etc. He kindly requested that people stop spamming him with harsh critcism, which I can understand. Positive is fine, but he's working on improving them which is great.
I suspect he knows about this thread/forum as he saw the comments about him being slow/retarded etc. Please keep it friendly, he's done a good job in my eyes so far, and when clear soles and a few other tweaks are done, for the money they will be an excellent asset to the community.
If he sends any more updates I'll throw it up here for you guys. I don't think it will be for a while as they have to sell their current batch first, so keep buying pairs to wear casually and hopefully within the next few months we will see V2. They're for pennies, I may grab myself a pair of the white ones this month actually as they look really comfy :thumbsup

great, what brand paint pen marker did you use?
theres a few out there, was looking to choose a good one. they say waterproof oil based is best for plastic.
also, you know the black sections of the sole, do you reckon if I painted just the sides with a tyre paint pen, the paint would stay on?
i think they would look better all white or light grey on the sides, the bottom doesn't matter.
A bit Closer...
great, thats good.
ps, on the strap on the knockoffs or homages, the material seems to be made of the same as the actual shoe.
what material do you guys recommend to get to replace this strap?
is it just plain leather? in the UK, where's the best place to get some cheap leather for cutting out some straps?
NICE!!! I am now torn as to weather to pick up a pair or wait till they do the revamps....
