Custom Shroomery Shoes-Anybody down?

I got a bunch of osiris shoes today that just got in from china (might be kind of knock offs but the stitching and leather is legit)
So I'm prepping them and thinking over custom designs, and I thought a shroomery design would go really well on these blue ones.... Anyone interested?

actually the chinese have really came a long way with that kind of shit, I'd be more worried about north korea...but yeah one dude I was talking to about led ufo lights actually sent me pictures of his sweatshop, that was pretty fucked
I'm going to go for it though, worst case scenario I have to repaint em,
I'm thinking just the kind of pix you get with monotubs in the middle and along part of the side, then shroomery symbols across the side and I'm going to see if I can put an actual spore print on the toes before varnishing....

sorry dude but that'd be more like the starting price, the osiris bronx shoes are around 65-75 already (knock offs were 30-40 depending on order size) and then they're custom shoes....and...well look those up for a few minutes an xbox pair went for 2,500, and last I looked the cheapeast pair at ebay at the time was 150. put anything vikings or greenbay on em and its easily around 250.
I'm not expecting anything like that though, I would probably start it right at 75
Which is why I was gauging just how interested people would be

I guess they aren't fake after all. I sort of assumed they were, but I checked the ones in the store and its same price, padding, colors, everything. The shoes cost me 40 and then factor in 5 bux worth of paint, acetone, etc for each shoe and I'd start it at 50 or "buy it now" 65-70. If you didn't like the quality then send it back. I think that's pretty fair. and seriously dude if you don't want them then awesome, the point of this thread was to see if anyone was interested, if not, then fine idc, seriously lately it seems like everytime I post you just are trying to pick apart stupid shit, I don't get it dude do you have a problem with me or something?
Really though I just thought it'd be cool to do a shroomery shoe cuz I have a bunch of people offering to pay 150 for anything I put on it, but I figured I'd see if anyone on here wanted it.

Basically I was toying with the idea of setting up a small ebay store with some mimosa, torch, maybe poppy seeds, you know that sort of thing, and some psychedelic themed shirts and stuff so I just waded through a bunch of trading sites and talked to foreign suppliers until I found a few I thought were decent and placed a few orders, so I found some good suppliers just from the normal, although admittedly somewhat sketchy, trade sites
I hate all that bullshit, but there are some good ass deals if you learn how to spot the fakes and get your money back if you're fucked over
hope that helps, if you want to talk trading sites hit me up dude, I'll let you know some of the decent ones I've found, like this shoe supplier
