Lucifer - I mean, I would definitely not do it on anything you care about. Could be fun to experiment with free, cheap, or old items. Listen to h if you were thinking about anything but.
-
think Beats did some self OD experimental stuff, to lazy to search for this now, but sure you can find it somewhere here around. And as the guys says, wouldn't do that with a quality piece, but with 2nd hand item, or a cheap old Levi's or whatever why not, worth a try, just don't expect perfection…

These are the three threads I found in a quick search that have to do with Overdying and Overdying Projects. I also dyed a pair of vans somewhere on here. Hope it helps.

Thinking about getting a cheap shirt ( http://www.sullivanuniforms.com/uniforms/SD78DN/denim-shirts/Red+Kap+Denim+LONG+SLEEVE+Western+Work+Shirts.html or something) and try to get my hands on some indigo dye.

Does anyone have experience re-softening hardened crepe soles? If so, please PM me. Thanks.
Can you do this? I found a pair of nice, old Clarks in my parents attic (Made in UK), but the crepe sole was rock hard.

Anybody got experience with bootmaker http://www.williamlennon.co.uk/?

captain - I've bought two pairs of boots from William Lennon. The traditional work boot and the tan waxy leather sole boot. The trad. work boots are amazing, (as were the tan waxy, but I didn't get on with them - beautifully made but just not great for my feet, so sold them on here). Good sturdy construction and a great price.
Paul T did a fantastic pictorial post of a factory visit on his blog:http://loomstate.blogspot.com/2011/11/william-lennon-factory-stoney-middleton.html.
I've been tempted to ask them for a custom job, but not got round to it. I'm know they can customise to a certain degree. Be prepared to wait at least 4 weeks, though I've found a polite email around the four to five week mark usually gets things moving quickly!

I've got a pair as well; solid build quality, decent price. A bit slow to break in, but not uncomfortable, even from the very beginning.

Anyone got any experience with these?

A very nice price for what looks like a well crafted boot.

open the album and in the top right corner there should be a "add more pics" botton…!
Should work. Make sure once you click add photos that the Album Title comes up. Also, you can always "edit" the album and move the photos to your desired location. I know that isn't the answer you were looking for but it is a option.
