I don't like the colour of my boots...?

Question

I live in London, would shoe menders (whatever they're called!) dye them??

I just bought them in a sale and there were no other colours!!

Answer 1

I know that you can definatley BUY shoe dye in a Shoemenders, but I have never seen shoe dying advertised in one. Depending on the material your boots are made of, it may be worth enquiring at a dry-cleaners, as they dye clothes...why not shoes ?!

Answer 2

You can have them dyed at a shoe menders, but this will cost you a lot of money. it is possible to bye shoe dye, and do it yourself, and this will be much cheaper, but very messy. I think also that you can only dye shoes and boots if they are real leather. Hope this helps......good luck.

Answer 3

Suede can be dyed fairly easily if going from light to dark. Smooth leather is much more difficult. Take them to a good and reputable cobbler. I'm sure London has several. Ask around or check the phone directory.

Answer 4

I would say that buying new ones is the safest idea. Alternatively, check with a cobblers (Shoe menders) and see if they can do it!

Answer 5

Shoe menders would dye them, couldent you just exchange them.

Answer 6

It depends on the material. Some shoe materials can't be dyed different than what they already are. Just check with someone who dyes shoes.

Answer 7

Dye em

Answer 8

There are colored polishes that can change the color of them. also good for covering up scuff marks.

Answer 9

might do.. just polish them yourself...... you can go back to lighter colours by using paint stripper... just be carefull

Answer 10

Buy new ones.
