Well, after being the laughing stock of my friends for attempting to play in Beckham's Predator Pulsion Dragons, and cuz my Mercurial Vapor K's and Pulsados stink, I've attempted to cover up the dragons on my cleats. What was I thinking when I bought it? But anyway, here's pictures of my cleats. Thought you guys might wanna check it out. started using a Sharpie marker on it till I ended up using a stronger more permanent one (you have to shake the pen...kind of like a spray can). Feel free to make comments. Think it looks stupid? I do!

You ruined a good thing. Why listen to others? I don't get why wearing dragons is such a big deal.

-Firstly, as a person and a footballer, you have to learn to consider other peoples views, but not let it affect you. If you like something, and it makes you happy, and it's not hurting others, who cares! :)

-Secondly, those aren't pulses, so it's not an extremely pricey stuff up.

-Thirdly, I think it doesn't look too bad. If u neaten it up, and perhaps add a few other details, you could turn it into a pretty good thing!

-Soooo, lighten up and don't give in under peer pressure or whatever! ;)

Haha thanks for the responses. I wouldn't call it "peer pressure". I just thought when I bought it, it would look badass, but it really looks silly. Like, there are vendors on the streets of new york who sell bootleg caps and clothes with random ******** like dragons on it with random words like, "millenium", or "2000" on it just to make it look "cool". Thats kind of the vibe I get from the beckham dragons. Now that I look at the cleats in person though now that I blacked the dragons out, it looks a little cooler because its more like an engraving of the dragon and when you look close you can see the dragon silhoutte.

ultimately im trying to buy predator manias again though.

i think they look good. maybe if you neaten up the edges of your blacking-out of the dragons, people would think that thet're a special version or something. maybe u can use a layer of acrylic spray paint over the marker-ed bits.and maybe, just maybe u can whiten the stripes.. think of how it would look like.... :D

The best thing to have done would have been to mask off the areas you wanted to color and spray the boot with acrylic paint. That would suit the material more and give it a deeper color after giving it two coats - using a marker twice only serves to move the ink you put on previously. You may as well try it now I guess!

Do you leave your car on stock rims?
Do you buy a pc and not upgrade the software?
Do you get a girl and not stop her seeing that "just a friend" guy?????

Hmmm...definately interesting, and not bad, its a good idea, and it does make your shoes more unique than anything so thats definately a plus. You might get laughed at but dont worry about it. It would definately look better had you not used a marker, but something darker and more professional, but definately a cool colorway :)
