They'd have to be made out of Silver as that's the cheapest metal I use.
You might get something as simple as this made by a local engineering firm, they would press it and anodize it to get the colour in.
So if you had 10 pairs you'd be looking at £235 in total with subsequent pairs only costing £22 without further casting charges.
I was expecting one offs but to do what your thinking certainly works out cheaper.

would these be silver or gold looking then? I assume silver since that's the material used. What if they were made out of brass instead, would that be cheaper or more expensive? I don't think the price is too bad, although I can't afford it at the moment, but I might just get back to you on this.

Definitely still want to get some customs made Mr. Pure, not sure what I'm after yet though, I don't want to rush into it and then have some good ideas when I've already had them done!

I'm working on it though!

I was thinking maybe a big letter W, around the same size as the IB tags? or something the same size a s aregular lace tag, totally flat and with a W pressed into it.

I've got a few pairs of shoe jewellery - I think they are well smart but on the right shoe - I found that the silver colourway Adidas chrome grids are mint on my warhols, on fat white laces. I tried em on my graffiti's but they were too much, but cos they on fat whites on warhols they look nice - not too much.



I also got the small silver lace tags on my graffiti's - they are small and flat with just the trefoil leaf cut out of them. These are well nice - really subtle cos the graffiti's are mad enough especially with the patterned laces - and I had to replace those shitty plastic lace clips the graffiti's come with - they were awful



I just bought these in gold too, to go on my buenos aries - they look nice too



I want to get some more grids now for my (soon to be mine lol) upper playgrounds

I got a pair of the grid ones up for grabs if you're interested. They're a little too big for my taste.

Nope, I still haven't updated my PayPal account. If your paypal account transfers directly from your bank account (and not through a credit card) it should be fine though. Or if you have a PayPal balance that should work fine too.

Otherwise cash in a good old envelope will do fine too.

I am verified and the cash comes from my bank account - so we could try?

How much you looking for? in total with p +p?

Actually the trefoil isnt a leaf, its supposed to represent the olympics or summat...
