Do Black Mesh Lavers Need Modding?

Post by Guest_2 »

My friend has black mesh lavers

He asked me to mod them

I love modding lavers. But-I've never felt such soft canvas before. It's incredible. All color lavers are different

Has anyone modded mesh black lavers? Do they need it?

i have black mesh lavers, and they are my first pair. i removed canvas from the toe and inside, i did a broka mod, and cut out the first two eyelets. to answer your question the canvas does need to be removed.

I modded the toe and inside on mine - they played like broken in shoes after a few days of shredding.

these are the black mesh lavers that i have (see link below), and like slapdash21 said the sides really need no work done, however the toe needs work... badly

The fabric seems a bit softer than white lavers

Whoah! No way man!

Green bottom breaks in quickest!

Blue bottom breaks in/lasts longest!

Red go fastest!

Black has a softer inner canvas!

I think tom is right.... but who knows.

I really want black lavers for the color but I can't find them in my size anywhere.

im tellin you mosh, this may just be my pair, but they are noticably more supple than my previous two pairs (first green and white then navy and white). but i never mod the sides anyway. i did it on my first pair and regretted it because i didnt notice any real difference aside from them falling apart more and never being able to wear them if it was at all cold or damp out. again, maybe just me, but i dont stall the bag in a place that it would be improved at all by cutting the canvas out of the sides.


though i AM on crazy pills....hm...

ive had my white/navy shoes since like.... february 11 and there are already holes in each sole. Not to mention like half of the front part of the sole is worn down almost to my spencos.

it is all in your mind. My green bottom shoes lasted the longest for me.

I have white/blue, white/green, black/black, leather, plaid etc and they are all quite similar.

The only ones that stand out are the non-mesh ones.
