well if you are selling you need to have visibility, anyways you are the only person that ever said anything about it so i adjusted the size to make it less in your face, i think thats a fair compromise

.. Due to the high visibility I was on the verge of kopping, now I realize I am need of some glasses. Or perhaps you could add some images?

OK, need some of your problem solving skills.
I have (had) the black and milk memphis mainline pants.
These:


Now, white and me don't get along, so sure enough after a while there were red wine stains and just general wear etc. In my stupidity I decided to wash them. Cue excess colour in the pants giving the white a dirty colour in places. Went to the dry cleaner ("You should have come here for it." - thanks, very helpful now) and he said the best I can do is dye it black and hope for the best.
I did. I regret. Now it's a weird rusty red (no, it's not as good as it sounds). What's next. I am thinking plastidip it or use permanent marker.

Any ideas?

have them professionally dyed black. it is more costly than permanent marker but it lasts longer and will yield a better result.

[lowrey]

what kind of dye did you use? if its cotton, its should go pretty black if you use enough dye (and salt) and warm enough water.

[Shucks]

before i reply, what are the materials of the different sections?

[mrbeuys]

Therein lies the problem. The pants themselves are of course cotton (with some elastane) and they are black as black.
The white bits are a cotton / poly mix (roughly 50/50 i think). I knew it wouldn't take the full colour, but I didn't expect it to go red either.
Lowrey, I used normal Dylon Black Velvet machine dye. Supposed to use it at 40ºC but I did it at 30ºC because I thought the higher temp might screw something else up.
