They're my shoes of choice right now! They mod just like lavers! If you want a laver-gunit hybrid.... get these!

Your next task: Go to the bathroom.
Wash your face.
Put your shoulders hunched upwards.
Look really, really slowly upwards towards the mirror like in the movies
And slap yourself in the face.
With your game face on.
And go shred with jim.
It'll work, trust me.

i would say (imo) that you would mod them almost exactly like a laver

i.e. cutting out the inside material inside the shoe, and doing the same for the toe

I ended up getting normal g6s because I don't really dig the camo, and I'd rather get a shoe that I have to do a little more work on so I can learn

Honestly, leather g6's probably are easier to shred in that they create a huge hole in the side of your foot from the absence of leather. Same goes for the toes.

I didn't like the camo either, but I went with the mesh because i felt the leather g6's would be too much of a crutch.

But, don't take my word for it.

The feel for the mesh G-units is superbly softer and has much more conformity around your feet. They feel much more comfortable than leather G-units, which has stiffer support. And yeah, the gap on the leathers after modding can be a bit distratcting for people wanting to improve on some variables of their form. I also think the mesh G-units can considerably break-in faster than leather G-units.

The only cons I noticed is that there is a lot more padding to mod out than the leather G6s, and people who want a more secure ankle support should not play in these shoes.

I wouldn't like the idea of my outsides blowing out like the ones on my leather ones did. It would be better to be safe then sorry IMO
