    c c p d r e d b o o t s

    my special order no seam cordovan red boots were too radioactive orange for my liking, so i overdyed my object dyed rorange boots polished jet black and had them leave the rorange color underneath and inside the boot. i instructed them to let the dye bleed through the zipper onto the roarange zipper "tabs"
    as i wear the boots creases will form as well as scratches that will reveal the rorange underneath...
    i had seen a friend do something like this before, and it seemed like a fun thing to do, experiment on ccp, as ccp is always experimenting on me.

    firm in nyc did a great job and did everything to exact specifications. it cost 55 bucks. this is a happy end to a long wait. have a happy holidays and new year everybody!





    One wonders where it will end, when everything has become gay.

    I actually do like them now P,
    I didn't like the shade red they originally came in, this really looks great and will be interesting to see how it ages, I also like this version better than the one with the shaft that links the sole to the heel

          Firm stands up to its reputation. I'm impressed.

            fantastic.
            glad you worked out such a fine solution.

                    Very nice. What type/brand dye did they use?

                      I didn't like the red /orange colour at all. Good decision to dye them and use the inner colour as a contrast. The boots look like a prototype of a future collection.

                              Any chance you have pictures of the boots before dyeing them?
