hiphopcaliber - props for being creative. I hate to be a biter, but in this case, pardon my biting!

to everyone - I did it on both right and left foot of mine, but I didn't need an extra set of laces, but I only did the XVII on the outer visible part , not the inside, and I had enough lace leftover to lace to the top and use the lacelocks too. I usually like my laces to look very orderly on the top of the tongue, but in this case, the tongue is black so you can't really see the complicated lacing so much... If I see anyone else doing this, I'll assume that they are an nter

zipgoku26 - I like your idea for the '17', but I don't think they would work very well fully laced and ready to wear, but I could be totally wrong...

I only got 3 holes too. But on mine I made it so it says XI on the outside and IX on the inside. There's barely enough lac left to tie them up.

i'm glad you guys liked it.....but i think you missed the point with the two laces, i was saying that you use one lace to make the XVII on the side and then use another set of laces to actually lace the shoes up, this is assuming that you want to wear them......anyway if i see anyone wearing their 17s like that imma say "whats up" ....

Nice idea. Can you play in 'em like that though? I got three friends, each with his own pair of 17's, and I'll have to let 'em know about this. That's tight, dog.
