Yes. I have 4 pair that need working on right now, but after completing a mod to one pair this morning, I just needed a break.

Heyy guys havent done the unyellowing.. got lost in finals and stuff.. plus im thinking of ordering some rubber uv protection.. for cars...kind of leaning towards wipe new, or renew protect. Renew protect has a blue one, and last 1 year, if you layer it enough you can achieve the blue hue on the RDs.. im gonna order that as soon as i can, so i can do it.. also need to fix my el panels on the strap

let us see the result when done

The blue looks good but too deep. I guess if you don't go with 3 layers it would be ok.
I'm just curious about the result after few walks (under the soles).

Any link/price to the product ?

So questions that I'm sure have been asked time & time again. I want to make a FAQ for modding Air Mags. With that said:

1) what fabric/color should be used to get the most accurate look???

2) what are the preferred paints for repainting the mid-soles/spatter???

3) Does the light blue leather dye/Sole Bright combo REALLY work??? & if so, does it work on HC, knockoffs etc???

4) where can I get an on/off button to connect to my 3 splitter EL/LED lights cables???

Please feel free to keep this going....

Are you wanting to create yet another MAG mod thread? There is also ready one for V2 (Chinese replicas) and HCs.
There are already a few threads running on these. I don't blame you for not wanting to read pages and pages just to find one answer. You should just ask. Someone always responds fairly quickly.

If you are modding the Halloween costumes Nike mag replicas, when replacing the lights in the sole with el do you need an inverter? Or does the pre existing electronic setup support that implementation? I haven't opened up the side rubber yet and just seeing if anyone knew the configuration?

 

[cavx]

Yes, you need an inverter to run EL.
LEDs run off DC. EL needs AC.

After looking at those, I definitely want some of the flat sided HC Mags when I can afford them. Just look so much sleeker than my HC with the bumps.

Yeah these look good.

Just curious as I have not tried this myself, I wonder it is possible to glue the trim on to the tongue instead of sewing?

haven't tried that yet either, seems that it would be possible

What sizes do these come in? I know they offer a wider range than the V2s. For the price, I am thinking getting a few pair for kickers. Naturally I would change out the soles and should have my new ankle buckles and heel cups done soon. I guess I am going to have to make a swoosh mold as well now.

These come in the sizes us 5-15

And those are US mens sizes? I think my wife would wear a Mens US5 or 6. The US8 of the V2 way too big for her.

I pretty sure it's men's

 

[cavx]

And are these true to size or larger like the V2?

I just measured the insole and the rubber mid sole (I got size 11) but from what I saw the insole runs 1/2 a size big and the rubber mid sole is about 12inches so I would say they run 1/2 a size big most likely

Given I will be sock toeing these, I should be OK with the US5.
