Thanks.

By the way, I love the color of your custom shoe ( Jealous, though. xD ).
I have to check with the kind of material they’re made of. I’m sure they are nt made of natural fibers. Have to check online for the Rit dyes as I live in India. I’m not sure i can find them here. :|

I don’t know of any preventative methods for keeping the soles dye-free. I personally haven’t had any issues with that, but some people have. All I can recommend, if they do absorb some of the dye, is to scrub them with a paste made up of equal parts hot water, baking soda, and white vinegar. Hope they turn out!

First of all, Thanks a lot for the post ! I was thinking to dye my White Converse Crowd ox printed Chucks to the same color that you have ended up in the picture. Condition of the shoes is they’re a week old with quite a bit of dirt and worn rubber(very less). So, if I dye them with the same procedure, will I end up staining the rubber ? (Ofcourse, you can’t guarantee that. No issues.). Based on your experience, how to end up the dye not getting absorbed to the rubber material.

I’m leaving the link of how they look like.

It’s going from dark to light that causes problems.

Some previous commenters have seen it happen.

If the soles do end up absorbing dye, try cleaning it with a paste consisting of equal parts hot water, baking soda, and white vinegar. Good luck!

Please reply
