Why are the runners black on Jagr's skates?

If you look, everyone else's are white. Interesting look.

He might like it that way because the black runners can hide the puck. If he is stick handling with the puck the goalie might lose sight of it since the puck and his runners are the same.

I guess its just his style. Ovechkin has the bright yellow laces and it is unique, so maybe he was looking for unique. I hate Jagr by the way.
