Dyeing shoes generally takes a week to ten days. We can dye the shoes faster for a RUSH fee. Dyed shoes are not waterproof.The dyes are water-soluble and will bleed or stain if exposed to moisture. When you custom dye bridal and prom footwear, protect your shoes with a water repellent spray but be sure the spray will work on your fabric and won’t
alter the shoe color. The spray will prevent most staining but will not make your bridal or prom shoes waterproof. Please be aware that once sprayed, the shoes cannot be re-dyed. We recommend you keep your spray on hand in case of inclement weather and avoid spraying your bridal or prom shoes unless absolutely necessary.
There is a difference between indoor and outdoor lighting. Ultraviolet light in the natural light spectrum will cause the color of your dyed bridal or prom shoes to look different outdoors from indoors. The color will also appear different between shaded areas and direct sun light.
When custom dyeing bridal or prom shoes it is not possible to get a perfect color match due to the textural differences between the shoe fabric and the dress material being matched (unless your shoes were made from the same fabric as the dress). A custom dye job by a master dyer can ensure that your bridal or proms shoes will be dyed properly to blend as close to the hue and depth of color as humanly possible.
