I had a total meltdown and just threw everything out. Sorry. Im normally not that impetuous - don’t do failure well. But I’ve learned. For those who want to do it with other colors on their own (vs what Nike is doing) the idye poly is the product you want. Just make sure you’ve got ample space for total, even shoe submersion, an area to rinse excess dye and drying racks. Tbh it’s not easy, but it is doable.
I’m actually happy that I learned something new...aditionally, the whole thing motivated me to pick up the original red/black/white cw along w the teal/black/purp/red. I think Errolson was on to something before guys like Virgil were and those shoes somehow got overlooked - folks just realizing how dope they are now.

How did you melt the patent leather? Chemical reaction? Nike and other aren’t dying the shoes like you would garments (i.e. - boiling water).

In Miami for Art Basel and saw they were doing AF1 makers station at the Nike Store. A fellow NTr through me an oop and let me get in to make pair. I had those old Godzilla vs. Barkley posters in mind while putting these together.
PS: There's no stitching or grommets at the Miami station. Just dye, swooshes, laces, and lace accessories.

These last many pages of this thread have finally concluded that mainly white AF1s are uber trash to me.

You have to boil the dye initially....it was too hot after I thought it cooled....i didnt let it sit in the dyeing "vessel" long enough.
I tested on a dummy pair first so I thought I was fine but the patent was more sensitive than I had anticipated.

The experience today was great! Had a fantastic time, and was chosen for the special custom presto X experience! You needed to be Nike FF to do it, and best part it's free!

This. I was invited today in the store to do it. The dude said "You look like you'd enjoy this." Talked to me about it (It's entirely free even the shoes) and signed me up. It's only Nike FF right now and random invites. I'm doing it soon so I'll see if I can take pictures for you guys.
