Yeah, me too!! Gary Weaver, who is helping me with the clear soles just got his supply of clear urethane rubber in. He will be doing some tests soon.

Yes I did. Thank you for the offer. I do have other photos from people here that have the real shoes as well. But thank you!

I can't stop now. I am obsessed with these shoes, PLUS it's fun.

So was looking closer at my she and the real shoes and I think I need to slim the ankle area a little. Mine is too round and the real shoes taper back to the rear seam. So I will be moddifying the last a bit.

The work here is just amazing. These shoes are soooo close to what Nike produced its scary.
Im really hoping the day comes when some Sth East Asian factory clones these for wear.

Come to think of it, not much left of the original shoes now, especially if you and Gary manage to replace the underside with a 'clear' part.

Why the heck don't you just go the whole hog and make them all from scratch ??

If you have templates etc for everything, you'll end up only having to put the various bits together, and would probably do it in an hour flat eventually.

Then mass sell them here. Not one or two for thousands.

Plenty, for 'cheap'.

Will you be re-doing the speckled blue on the outside of the shoe?

Yes. The real shoes use a painting process called Zolatone(sp?). I think I can replicate it as well.

Thanks Alan! I don't think I want to mass produce these. They take about 2 hours to make the upper part and that is without the lights installed PLUS they are too easy to mess up and have to start all over with.

IF I make anymore, it will only be 2-3 extra to sell. Right now I have 3 pairs ready to convert. But I am waiting to see how the clear rubber turns out as well as the white top part.

It's inaccurate :confused

Pft. Mine isn't.

Must be another DS company out there :lol
 
Re: NIKE, you can go to hell. I'm making my own NIKE MAG's *VIDEO* 10-29 Pg.10

the first version released by diamond select wasn't as accurate as the second one they released. the second one had the correct fluxing pattern and correct battleship grey colour :thumbsup
 
Re: NIKE, you can go to hell. I'm making my own NIKE MAG's *VIDEO* 10-29 Pg.10

Just for the record, I was kidding !

I have no idea what 'version' I have ! It does the flashy thingy routine & that's fine with me :lol

I'd also wait to see if nike is mass producing like the rumors say

I simply HAD to sign up when I saw this. This really is awesome. I'm the guy who sent you a message (mr2nut123) with a few pointers Brad, how's things?

If you need any funding at all, feel free to drop me a line. Definately made my day (year..?) seeing this :thumbsup
