@Oaktavia just saw your IG reel and came here for more info/pics. Got me thinking, how would a heavily faded pair of broken in jeans look re-dyed in a vat of indigo..?

[Oaktavia]

@T4920 i was wondering that too but I don't have a pair I would want to do that with. The indigo would darken everywhere but the fades would turn lighter blue I guess?

Someone got to do it then will know for sure.

As far I read comments on dyed jeans the feedbacks were negative on Amazon.

So this one is a gamble for sure

@Oaktavia

I dig the boots I like it.

If I did I wound choose red

[Oaktavia]

@Kasi that would be cool

[Mizmazzle]

So cool!

I put my silicone Otterbox phone case in the indigo vat and it worked! It was light blue before and now it's a beautiful shade of indigo I did not think it would take the dye but it totally did. I can post a photo of it tomorrow morning. Now the question is: oh you know it already.

[Oaktavia]

Here is my indigo dyed phone case. It was super light blue before I dipped it in the vat.

@Oaktavia what stuff did you use for the indigo dyeing?

[Oaktavia]

@endo i used Jaquard pre-reduced indigo with soda ash mixed with sodium hyrdosulfite.

X-posting these here because it seems relevant to share from the New Balance thread.

I dipped these 998s in the indigo vat last weekend I think about five times. I did these on a whim and they actually turned out to be the prize of the whole weekend. I'm really happy with how these turned out. They were grey and pale yellow with some blue in a few spots. I love how indigo blue some of the areas turned, especially the upper heel area. Wow that blue is bright! What do you all think?

@Oaktavia They do say Abzorb! So you can go literally full indigo now? They look better than grey that’s for sure.

[Oaktavia]

@Mister_Brue haha yeah buddy!

[Oaktavia]

Indigo dyed Moc Toes 875

[Mister_Brue]

@Oaktavia Is the mark where you have scuffed them since dying, or where it didn’t take so well? I think these are going to look rad with some wear.

[pechelman]

so who's going to be the crazy one to buy a fresh pale rider and give it an indigo dunk?
