There is a gay vibe in this thread.

A few years ago I bought some of Nike's Lance Armstrong shoes -- don't hate, they fit and have served me well. Anyway, they had a big Texas flag on the toe strap, which I could not abide. So I put a strip of duct tape over it and haven't looked back.

Anyone else have stories of murdering out their gear?

MegaTom

That's not "murdering out".

nycbianchi

Okay fair enough. I was excited to use it in a sentence. Still curious if people have stories of blacking out or otherwise masking logos or other decorations on gear.

I'd call that more stealth than murdered out.

Red lining and yellow cleats on the SIDIs, not murdered out.

either way. where did they come from! it can't be a product placement issue.

I've blacked out Sidis with a Sharpie. Works pretty well.

Those shoes were great! I had the later model with the 10/2 date instead of the flag. Unfortunately, the carbon in the heels got close to wearing through (a wreck helped them along) and I had to replace them. I miss those shoes.

I would've done the same thing with the Texas flag.

what's to love?

No but it really makes me think of Ja rule "Its Murdah!"

nycbianchi

I'm still wearing them, though the carbon on the heels is completely worn through. I stuck on some plastic taps (toe and heel) from my local shoe repair guy, but they are looking pretty sad. This is probably the year I say goodbye to them and get some SIDIs like everyone else.

enjoi07

oooh quick. where is umd

Crash716

I'll take it for him...


I hate Sidi's....i bought some Ergo 2's last year...and they made my feet feel like the dude from that movie "Misery"
