Any recommendation for a place that will dye shoes?

[Sluggo]

I have a pair of AE Hancocks in Merlot that I don't wear, mostly because they are Merlot. I would love to have them dyed black, but my local cobbler has been sloppy recently. I know I could do this myself, but I rather pay for someone to do it correctly.

I checked B Nelson and they did not mention it on their website, so who else could do this?

I needed up doing it myself with great ease! I think they will turn out awesome with a bit of Saphir black polish over them!

Awesome!

I was watching this thread....What did you use, and where did you get it from?

I used Feibing deglazer and dye...supper easy, and tonight I built up the black polish layers with some Saphir.

I think that is great. Just disappointed that Milwaukee is falling victim to a shortage of decent cobblers.

I do have a good cobbler, but he takes a lot of time off this time of year. It was fun doing it myself, but I was a bit nervous as I was first applying the dye...a little goes a long way. I'll post some pictures tomorrow.

Ok, here is a factory shot of what I started with and how they ended up

Well, I can't figure out how to rotate the pictures...you get the idea.
