Had a shitty pair of white chucks that had mud all over them, took black and white spraypaint then did my shitty ass ombre attempt, had no tape on me at the time (not @ home) so I didn't bother covering the soles/logo/eyelets as you can tell

It's probably because I just used spraypaint and didn't go over it in anything but they feel very stiff atm, should I just wear them to soften them up or should I just leave them there to look cool, got them 4 cheap anyway

yea pretty much, although like I said they feel very stiff/rough prob cause of the paint

make sure if you do spray over the logo patch on the side that you let it sit for a few hours because i decided to poke mine only an hour in and it smudged up making it appear like sludge.

yea pretty much, although like I said they feel very stiff/rough prob cause of the paint sinking into the material

make sure if you do spray over the plastic parts, meaning the patch on the side and the sole/toecap part you let it sit for a few hours because it will take longer to dry/merge with the denser plastic than the canvas.

I was thinking about doing the same with the German flag colors (dark yellow, black, scarlet)
Does that sound like it would turn out cool? Or should I use more colors?

I'll likely do it in sections. Like a lot of black on first, then splatter the scarlet and yellow on on top of it.

your call m9. but if i were you i'd buy white and then do the colors. black shoes might make the black paint less visible, and it'd look like you just spilled ketchup + mustard all over yourself. white and then colors would make it look intentional at least.

Guys, i have pair of complete new, but ugly new balance 574, that i bought 2 years ago. I don't know why, maybe i was stupid or just sleepy, or maybe even drunk. Anyway, i want to paint them black.
