Dont wanna sound like a jerk, but it's been mentioned that it's RIT die and the color is ROYAL BLUE.

A little bit of reading and you could've found that out yourself.

A+ job

what would you guys recommend in dosage to get a very light blue tint on my xi soles ? i want them to look like almost DS factory kinda blue tint, maybe half a tablespoon ?

 

[southwesthouston]

would 1 tablespoon of rit dye be too blue ?

I want to see somebody do this on a pair of Cool Grey XI's.

[deyxknow]

those concords and annis were sicknessss

 

[sthebest]

thanks guys. I did a few more XIs for Roll. this time I used just water and RIT dye. I find that using water works, but makes the blue a darker blue as opposed to a deep light blue like you get with seaglow.

Great execution up there STB!!!  Wish I hadn't passed on the Silver Anniv. XI's now..  Would've been great to rock a pair with the right colored soles. 

'Bout to hit my '09 Jams next...

STHEBEST im about to do my anni xis and space jams. what would you recomend for a very light blue(kinda DS blue tint look) on the space jams ? half a table spoon of dye ? and more blue on the annis 11's then a full table spoon of rit dye ?

do the sides first and let dry for 5 min then do bottom soles ?

what type of brush u use ? or can you use latex gloves and do with your finger for the sides?

[Renaldo Balkman]

[hotbutter]

^^ really thinkn about dying my D.B VI's.... a light shade of royal would be bananassssssssss

j.w how long did you guys leave the dye on? 10-15 minutes right?

and wahts the process for removing the dye?


thanks in advance!

 

[southwesthouston]

no one answered my questions, if you wan the light blue shade on the space jams like on the space jams, do you put only half a table spoon of blue dye ?

and how long do you wait to dry in the sunlight before you wife it off with a wet paper towel ?
