Okay so I may sound like some sort of poor ass gaper but I am getting a pair of Full Tilts Seth Morrison and they have a 6 flex tongue on it but the problem is that they are white so it doesn't really match. Would it affect the flex of the tongue if I spray painted it or stained of some sort if so would taking a marker to it work? Please don't make fun of my because I have the craziest ideas.

No, it doesn't affect flex.

Scroll down a bit to see the instructions on dying them.

your snowpants should cover the majority of it anyway.. unless your THAT kid who rolls his pants above his boot. and now spray paint wont effect the plastic, it will just crack and look shitty over time.

I think plastic dye would look the best, and stay that way in the long run. No it won't affect the flex.

ive never really heard about these full tilts, but the one thing i do know about them is that they eliminate shin bang.

You'll be fine spray painting the tongue. You could also go on ebay or something a buy a new pair if you don't want to spray paint. Just an idea.

This they have a stiff flex they're a big mountain boot, as they are made for Seth Morrison. If you want a 6 flex get a different boot or you are gonna have to buy a different tongue.

what does one have to do with the other? People buying expensive cars still like to pick the color.

I think what he's saying is that the original owner of the boot swapped the tongue with a white 6-flex tongue. Hence why it doesn't match.

I think the search bar should officially be renamed to the search box. All agree say 'I'

unless you're one of those kids who roll their pants up so you can see your boots, it doesn't really matter if you can see your tongues.
