Why get rid of the red pipeing? It matches your pinstripe. Just stitch some patches over the HUSKY and maybe that wolf head (or whatever it is).

I agree with the 'hockey stick', keep the piping and just go get some patches to cover up the white crap. Good idea, way to think outside the box. Probably a hell of a lot cheaper than 'real' bags.

Maybe taking the price tags off might help.

Sorry, just jacking with you...

Made me laugh like hell though.

Can probably scrap the white stuff off, or maybe boot dye then spray paint the whole bag. I still like em.

Use a seam ripper to remove the stitching. +1 on Hockey stick's idea
