Stay posted this weekend. I have already bought the dye. If you have the pine greens, I recommend you dying them yellow. It would be pretty sick. Im actually going to be dying my friends pine greens yellow. Should look fresh. And yes dying the soles is an easy remedy for "yellowing soles". It's also a fresh look. @Witness, no need to be bashing on foams, if you dont like them then you dont need to be bashing on the thread my dude. You have done it on a lot of threads. Once again, for those interested in seeing my Electric Blues getting dyed, I will be posting pictures this weekend. I am also hoping to cop some eggplants to make a "Ravens" themed foamposite.

Jason Negron aka Sole Swapp has already done that to a pair of EB Foam Pros. They came out pretty good.

Glad to hear it came out good. Hoping mine will this weekend as well. I dont mind people's opinions, but no negativity.

So, I picked up some Nike Foamposite Pro's that were used for a good price. They were the Silver Pro Foamposites, but the person dyed them black and did a terrible job. The soles were in bad shape, well basically the entire shoe. I just got done doing my first coat of paint on the soles. Im thinking of dying the entire shoe, since it is in bad shape to make some customs. I will probably be doing a "Christmas Colorway" like the xmas lebrons. I never dyed the entire foamposite shoe before, but I will let you all know how it goes. Here are some pictures:

I know one thing, they dont make the new foamposites like they used to. The older ones have soles that are just so much better, and easier to restore. The insoles are great as well.

@sneakercrazy: I think black would look nice on the pewters. Any color could go with silver, honestly. A Lime green would look nice.
@jriv: Yes I do use RIT. I use a packet of rit mixed with a little bit of water and some sea glow. The sea glow acts as as the "glue".
This is my recent cop. Picked these up on ebay for only $150. They are VNDS. The soles are going to be dyed purple for the Baltimore Ravens.
Unfortunately, my electric blues will not be here until saturday or monday. I'm honestly upset, because I'm excited to do them. Hopefully they will be here saturday, so I can show you guys asap. Pics will be uploaded when I'm done the eggplants.
