If you look at sprinting shoes, and think what they need to be better for paintballers - more even so you get grip on all areas of the foot,
waterproof yes but don't go overboard,
the main things have got to be good grip while being strong and flexible...
Chopper? no. definately not
Once you've made a prototype, and it's good... you should approach a big name pantball company that doesn't already have a shoe range... 'Angel shoes' has a ring to it doesn't it and = big profits
....dibs a lifetime supply if this goes through!
