No its not possible, salomon instals an anti paint field in the boots, kinda like a forcefield, except it just does not let paint get close to the boot.

lightly sand them and then use any none acrylic or oil based paint (acrylic will chip in the cold, oil will run in the wet).

Krylon Fusion spray paint i think has a bonding agent specifically for plastic, and the fan nozzle creates a better mist for the paint to stick to the plastic. Ive had good results with it, painting normal plastic. not sure on boots though if it is a different material...

you could always dye them a darker color.

meh, while on this topic, i just got some spk's and i love the boots but hate the fabric covering... is there an easy way to get that off?
it's bolted down in a few places it seems and i don't want to mess up my brand new boots.
