Yep, I generally scour ebay for old rough/damaged Bont's, then chop them up and lace them. So long as the sole is in (relatively) good shape you can fix/modify most uppers. I've got a pair of old Bont Vaypor's I cut the straps off of (like Carletons Fiziks) then laced and painted. $40 pair of Vaypor T's basically.
