Plus...the lack of toe cap after the toe slimming feels damn good. Anyone else with me? Damn nice being able to wriggle my toes against the fabric in these shoes.
How strong is the bond and what did you use for this?

Apparently it's a Loctite product called "Flexible Bond". I couldn't find this exact product but the staff at the store over here (in Tokyo) told me that this other product was EXACTLY the same.
I was pleased by how easy the toe-slimming was. I actually wore my MP's to Disneyland yesterday and the shoes were fine. No separation around the toe area and there was surprisingly very little wearing of the green paint flecks on the bottom of the soles. And damn comfortable to wear while waiting in those lines. One of the most comfortable pair of shoes i've worn.
Has anyone else worn their shoes out and about?
On the times when I have squeezed into mine, yes they are well built and very comfortable.
K-MAGs yes, MP shoes no.
They breathe really well, too.
Really? The MPs? I found my feet were really hot after about 20 mins.
Yeah, the reason the official 2011 mags look off is that they have made the shoe a bit more stiffer.
the original movie shoe looks more softer and fabric looks nicer.
Thats why i'm trying to rip the kmags uppers off, and just form some new ones with foam and fabric on top.
Since the original kmag uppers are just thin foam glued to leatherette, i think it should be possible to make a nice comfortable shoe to wear.
the hard part is the putting it together.:confused
Hmm. Maybe because mine have no toe cap. I was so thankful for them yesterday in the park. I had dry feet at the end of the day (^_^)
Can't ask for more than that![]()
for those that have the mark poon shoes. whats the cloth that he used on it? is it just standard cotton?
im toying with whether to do the tongue and upper white ankle piece in faux leatherrette or a softer cloth.
thing is, once ive made 1 shoe, I should be able to make others more easily.
Probably wasAnyway I think mine look way cooler. Heel Cup will also have raised letters as well, so no foam bits to fall off.
