Helpful Information About Dyeing Shoes
Dyeable Shoes Boutique offers dyeable shoes at
the best prices exclusively from Colorful Creations. Since these shoes are for special occasions such as weddings, bridal parties
and proms you will want your dyeable (dyable) items to be the proper color. We do not offer a dyeing service online due to the
tricky nature of dyeing shoes. Dyeing shoes is an art and not a science. When matched and dyed properly, you will have a
beautiful accessory to your dress. To ensure your satisfaction with the dyeing process have your shoes dyed in your hometown
(we suggest a local shoe repair shop), and follow the helpful hints listed below.

1 - Not everyone who mixes colors is good at it! Because of this always insist on approving your color before your items
are dyed. Ask your dyer to put his mixed color on the test material which is provided in each box. Now you will be able to see your
color before it is dyed and you'll know exactly what your shoes will look like when they are finished.
2 - Dyed items look different from indoor to outdoor (natural) lighting. Shoes dyed peach, beige and taupe for example will
look pinkish outside. Grey shoes can take on a purple tone outside. Color changes in different light settings is due to the fabric
that is being dyed and simply can not be avoided. Inform your dyer of the lighting at your affair. Also when you go to approve
your color take the test material that your dyer put your color on and look at it in the appropriate lighting. This will allow
you to see any variance in color and make you feel more comfortable about your color. Once again you'll know exactly what you are
getting.
3 - The dye applied to your shoes is water soluble. If your dyed items are exposed to water or heavy moisture the dye
can bleed or stain. To prevent this use a water repellent spray on your shoes. The spray will not make your shoes fully waterproof
but it is the best available protection against staining. The spray is sold at most shoe repair shops. It is fast drying and
will not affect your color. Once your shoes have sprayed the color is sealed in meaning you can not re-dye your shoes at a later
date. If you choose not to spray your shoes you will be able to dye them a darker color at a later date if you so desire.
4- Most shoe repair shops dye shoes. The cost varies from $15 to $30 per pair. Call around for the best price.
