Tips on Dyeable Prom Shoes & Custom Dyeing Prom Footwear

For pre-dyed prom shoes, manufacturers use factory-dyed colors that closely match the “prom dress” industry.

Promshoe.com offers many styles of these “color fast” Pre-Dyed Prom Shoes for 2009 prom wear, that won’t run or bleed if exposed to moisture however; they are not “dyeable”.

Dyeable Prom Shoes make a beautiful accessory to your prom dress when properly dyed and matched.

DEPENDING IF IT’S INDOOR OR OUTDOOR (NATURAL) LIGHTING YOUR DYEABLE PROM SHOES WILL LOOK DIFFERENT

Ultra violet light is found in the “natural” light spectrum and will cause the color of your dyeable prom shoes to change slightly in different light settings. This is a natural phenomenon and cannot be avoided. For example, designer prom shoes dyed beige, peach or taupe may have a pinkish hue in outdoor light. Dyeable grey and blue tone prom shoes may have a purple tone to them in outside light. In fact, the color of your 2009 dyeable prom shoes will appear different between shaded and direct sun light conditions. If possible, we suggest having your dyeable prom shoes dyed to match the lighting where the prom is being held.

PROM SHOES MAY BE DYEABLE, BUT DYEING IS MORE ART THAN SCIENCE

The only possible way to ensure a perfect color match is to have your prom shoes made from the same Fabric material as your prom dress. The textural differences between your 2009 prom gown material and your dyeable prom shoes will prevent a perfect match. If properly dyed however, the color of your dyeable prom shoes will blend well with your prom dress ensemble, coming as close as humanly possible to the hue and depth of color found in your prom gown.

PROM SHOES THAT ARE DYEABLE, ARE NOT WATER RESISTANT

Dyeing dyeable prom shoes is an art and when done properly, your shoes can match your prom dress perfectly. These dyes however are water-soluble and dyed prom shoes that are exposed to water or heavy moisture may bleed or stain. You can protect your dyeable prom shoes with a water repellent spray however we recommend not spraying your prom shoes unless it looks like rain on the day of the event. We suggest you keep the water repellent spray on hand as insurance in case of inclement weather. Be sure to check the spray application instructions to ensure that it won’t alter the dyed color and will work on your prom shoe fabric. While spraying your 2009 dyeable prom shoes will not render them waterproof, it will prevent most staining.

Do take note: Not unlike “color fast” shoes, once your dyeable prom shoes are sprayed with a water repellent spray you will not be able to re-dye them in the future.


Please call Promshoe.com Toll Free at 1-888-393-2253 or send us an email to arrange to have your dyeable prom shoes custom dyed. Customary dyeing charges may run between $8 and $25.
