    I didn't think it'd turn out as well as it did to be honest.

    If you are going to try it I have a few pointers:

    -Make sure your cover your nose and mouth with something and do it in a well ventilated area.
    -You should do about 3-5 coats of marker with a least a 10 minute gap between coats to get good coverage (I did it over a a few days)
    -Make sure you plan what you are going to do, and visualise it. Once it's on, it's on and there's no getting rid of it.
    -Don't get any on your clothes or hands because it is very hard to get off your hands, and pretty much impossible on clothes.

    Now that I think of it, it may not be a wise idea. When you are wearing the shoes and are sweating, the xenobiotics of the marker may get into your skin and spread through your whole body with the blood... :eek:

    But the thought of having custom shoes is very appealing. :D

    Worth the risk for me !!!
    Any way it's only on the outside of the shoe.

    The sight of that makes me gag !!!
    I think the Black/Orange combo will work nicely. What areas were you thinking of doing.

    Are both pairs badminton shoes? They don't look to me they are because the soles are quite thick. Mizuno product code does specify what sports the shoes are for. I know KM is for Badminton and KV is for volleyball.

    Yes me too, my previous shoes is mizuno wave lighting RX3 (an indoor court shoes), but currently I am using mizuno badminton shoes due to it provide more support, low profile (stability), and is comfortable for "wide feet" user.

    I'm one of you guys too. But depending on the floor condition. If it's dirty, my rx3 doesn't work well, it slips quite often, I only use it on rubber mats or outdoor volleyball training where the ground is quite rough. Meanwhile on woods/cement/dusty surface I'll use my shb02 as the gripping is better on those surface.
