Hand dyed Converse High Chuck 70

Probably one of our most known projects are the hand dyed Converse High Chuck 70 sneakers that we made in collaboration with our friends at Tenue de Nîmes.

As seasoned indigo lovers, the idea came up to overdye a small batch of Converse Chuck Taylor sneakers. We used high-quality natural indigo from India and dipped the sneakers one by one and several times to an incredibly deep blue shade. After the dips, we bathed the sneakers in vinegar and water for optimal color retention.

Even though the first batch was only available in store, they sold out in the blink of an eye. So, we did a second run, and a third… whom are available at Tenue de Nîmes’ web store.
