Ya, especially on my tile. I haven't tried them on concrete, but I'd imagine they would be more grippy on that kind of surface.
All lavers are slippery when you first buy them, but these seem to be a little more. Dunno?

No, I don't play soccer. Yes, there are competitions. 4 years. Lots of practice.

Freshly painted, modded them last night. Haven't played with them since I modded them, can't wait for tomorrow so I actually can.

these are my new children. They're in the oven of love in these pictures. I definately put the biggest-hugest-massivest broka I've ever made on these. I even threw in a broka on the outside of the ankle.
I used fabric paint to put those hot strypes green & yellow strypes on there (I picked it up at a local craft store) and outlined them with a black sharpie.
I cut out the entire inside surface and stitched (then glue gunned) my facile in it's stead. I love this mod.
I'd like to go and see a shoe repair place and ask the guy about having these soles ripped off and have upgraded (treadier/lighter) soles put in. Wouldn't that be sick!!??
keep it real
[EDIT] I seem to not be able to post my babies, so you can just take a look at:

Very nice, how secure is the facile for the inside? I'm guessing pretty good, and the glue will give it walls to hold the bag on.

Brocka mod on both sides of the shoe!? That's really scary. Tell me how secure they are for shred.
