Some people like customs, some people dont.

I personally am not a fan of customs, but i feel some jordan colorways missed a small touch that would make em better.

I'd personally like to paint my snakeskin 11 lows from green to black. I've been meaning to paint the ugly cement panels on the Infrared 2's to black, after watching bunch of customizing tutorials, i think i might finally be ready. Need to to be courageous enough to do it myself as customizers are OD pricey or too bougie to do small paint job...
 
Agreed. I have multiple Breds, Royals and Shadows, but I wouldn't mind all of them in Laser form. I'm making a pair this week, but in my favorite color, none of those.
I'm on the same boat.  I've been scooping up pairs of Lasers below retail for the past few months.  4 pairs and counting... lol

Anyone have info on these? I picked them up at a local Chinese spot that used to sell kicks back in the 80s 90s. Theyre vintage DS OG everything. Ive seen that Air Sangs and a few others but never these.

If this custom goes smoothly, I may make more. I have 2 lasers so far, but I'm leaving one as is because I like them.
Please just make sure you dull the paint a bit.  There's a few "customizers" on eBay selling their services or prefinished pairs, and they look horrible with glossy paint and unclean lines.
 
geez i wish a store around my way had them for under retail

None of my pears were from local stores though.  Check eBay and coupon codes for online stores.  You probably missed the deal off Eastbay also then.  I see prices slowly creeping up though so you probably shouldn't dilly dally for long.

I feel you. I customized a pair of KD's I had a couple years back. What I thought was a "decent" job turned into straight stanky *** within a matter of steps lol becaue of that I will probably never try or buy customs kicks lmao

First I thought that was a pair of Pony's then I thought they were just some bad knockoffs... Now im just plain confused lol

One of the original fakes but they're not Sangs.

My boy has a pair but this is the only pic I got

Actualyl worth quite a bit now
 
Ive seen that pair..these are very similar notice mine have the logo where jordan wings usually are...and also on the tongue.

Well, they're not Sang, AAU or Stadias which were the known reps back then and I'm sure they were all made by the same people. Haven't seen your pair before though and who the hell is Johnnie Walker? lol
