POLL: New Neon or Back to Black?

A year ago, I purchased these slip-on loafers from the Gap that were brown with tree/bark print on the top. They were cheap and comfortable, but not very appealing and hard to match. Moreover, there was a lot going on with them, with the shades of green and brown and black competing with each other.

I decided I wanted to spray them totally black to get more use out of them (I only wear black - it's the color of my soul). After I painted them, I thought "Hey, why don't I splatter paint them neon!" I've done this once and a thousand times to clothing items, but this time I did it in a different manner which was more of a "drip" style, then followed by splatter paint. The results aren't terrible, but I am on the fence whether to

!.) keep them how they are

b.) scrap off the paint and spray paint them back to black.

Here is how they look:

What do you guys think? My friend Elise, who rules, said yes, but I still don't know.

Can I get a witness?

Keep them how they are, you will get all the hipster ladies. They cannot resist a man wearing bright colored slip-ons.
