Fabric Dye Service

Anyone know of a professional that would dye a PH jacket for me?

I have a cream mens blazer that i want black/dark charcoal. I want it to look good/don't want it to bleed. Tag reads typical 100% wool, 100% cotton but it's very lightweight.

I just snagged a pair of Rick Owens sock sneakers in size 42 from Forward for $800. I'm a 42 in all other RO footwear I own (4 pairs) so I assumed that was right for these.

There is a tiny bit of heel slippage when I'm wearing them. Do any of you who own these experience this? I can't really tell if sizing down will add more support around the ankle given that the entire upper is just thin leather.

Send it to Colibri in NJ. Just so you know the thread on the seams won't dye the same shade.

I stayed the same size. I know many sized down but a full size down would be too small for me. Mine fit well though, might sound strange but the heel slippage has become less the more I wear them/let my feet relax in them. They fit like a glove now. I hope to get another pair and I will get the same size. Hope that helps.

Has anyone had an issue with their CCP leathers stretching at the shoulder? I've had mine on the included hanger zipped since I've received it and the top shoulder seam seems to have stretched about a half inch past the lining for it on the left side so you can see a line on the shoulder

Would appreciate any tips for from anyone who has been able to fix the shoulder stretching.

I sometimes see "wading" in reference to measurements when looking at pants on Japanese sites. Any idea what this is? I think it's supposed to be thigh, but I'm not sure.
