I recently bought a pair of pure white full seat breeches off eBay and they were badly distorted. The seat was damaged and could not be used. I had another pair of breeches that I didn't like but had a perfectly acceptable fit, so I decided to try a new fit and paint them to try and keep the eBay breeches from going in the trash. they must match the color of the replacement seat. (Note: I painted the breeches first and then changed the seat material so the seat material you see in the finished photo is not painted with dye). anyway, if I mixed them up, there were no casualties. The fabric on the pants (see photo of the pre-dyed white label on the pants) was a cotton/polyester/spandex blend so I bought matching Idye dye bags in Idye for cotton and Idye for polyester fabrics and a pack of Idye dye fixer and made them with the slab method. The color when cooked was very dark, but after rinsing and drying they lightened (which I was glad about). Also, due to the spandex content, I chose to keep the paint pot "almost simmering," but not bring it to a boil like the instructions suggest. I cooked about 1/2 hour (instructions recommend 1/2 to 1 hour). As you can see from the photos, the results were amazing! Now I have nice pair of breeches and one less piece of clothing in the landfill! Hooray! The Idye packages also say it's safe for my septic system - another big plus. Can't comment on color fastness yet as I've only washed it twice after dying, but I really like the color I used (a metallic bronze that has a blue base and suited my difficult to dye fabric turned out to be dark blue). In fact, I love the results so much that I definitely plan on using this method again for future bridges! So happy with Idye and would highly recommend him.
