Painting soles and shades of single color ones

[01Hawk]

Having read a ton of posts today before going out looking for boots, I was curious as to how well painted soles have held up? I am pretty sure I can find single color ones but does the actual shade of the sole matter or is any shade of tan ok?

And would these be too light on color? The movie boots seem to be a really light tan

I would say those are too light, their bordering white rather than the beige/honey colour

Go to Walmart & buy acrylic craft paint. It will be in their craft section next to the sewing section. It will come in a little plastic bottle (I think 2oz) It cost .88. This will flex with the movment of your walking. I used it to paint my soles. It has not chipped or cracked. Big plus is they have sevral colors of browns so you can choose to your liking. I went with a carmel color.
