Solid: One Colour Dye

1. Gather supplies

3. Wearing protective gloves, prepare dyebath in a large container with hot water, the desired colour and 125 grams of salt.

4. Dip damp Club C lace-side down into dyebath for 2-3 minutes, making sure not to get dye on the soles.

5. Once you’re satisfied with the colour, allow the Club C to sit and absorb the dye for 30 minutes.

6. Rinse the shoes in hot water until rinse water begins to run clear.

7. Allow to air dye.

Dip Dye: Three Colours With Two Dyes
