Soak them in water, leave them outside in the sun for two or three days. Through them in the wash. Ta da.

>>9453051
Thanks brah. Is this tried and true?

>>9453066
I left my shoes after I soaked them in water at the pool and I came back and they looked like this.

Them shits look stank, nigga.

>>9453074
Tru. Thanks

>>9453085
Like ya momma

>>9453074
so chlorine is needed too

you're basically doing a light bleach

>>9453099
Could you just make a bleach and water solution and soak them? I don't have a pool lmao

>>9453106
bleach turns black into orange dummy

>>9453106
I think it was just the sun burning the water out of the shoes which took some of the dye with it

fking wash them idiot, a lot.

hot/hot

Put em in a trash back with some bleach and some sand

Tie it, kick or beat it around a little bit

Take em out, rinse em

tada

>>9453043
How do you dye the white sole black?
Thanks

>>9453628
the soles are black rubber m8, you can't

>>9453632
No, they were definitely originally white.

>>9453043
1: buy white vans, black paint, and a bucket
2: combine black paint and water in bucket
3: toss vans in bucket
4: let soak overnight
5: remove vans and rinse thoroughly

done

For real tho, I used to have a pair of these and i personally loved em, but people would stop me on the streets and be like "time to get a new pair of shoes"

>>9453743
That would piss me off

>>9453051
this

Try roasting them.

>>9453043
how do you make vulcanized soles like vans not come apart from the cloth?

>>9453684
Pls be joking

>>9453743
I get that all the time. I just say I don't like new shoes

>>9453605
Is this legit? Straight bleach, no water?

>>9453043
I'd avoid using chlorine to remove the dye.

Go with the simplest solution:
>bucket o' water
>laundry detergent (with or without bleach, it depends on how much dye loss you want)
>soak overnight
>let the thing air dry outside, preferably in the sun

>>9455300
Jesus Christ, I'm contradicting myself here. Sorry.

Chlorine and bleach will weaken the cotton fibers of the shoes. Especially if you're just leaving them soaking in the stuff.

Just use regular laundry detergent.

Overwashed sk8 highs anyone?

>>9455325
I've always liked those. a little juvenile but they work well in punkish outfits.

I got these in blue last summer from the over washed collection, wore the shit out of them so they are even more washed out

>>9455184
He's talking about the midsole thing I think its called, usually vans midsoles are white

>>9453043
Get them wet and leave them in the sun for a few days. Duplicating the weathered midsole will be harder though. Not really sure how you would do that.

>>9453043
Over wash them

>>9453701
if you're just buying them new they have ones you can buy that look overwashed

>>9456398
>not doing it yourself to get a fulfilled feeling

what would these be worn with? washed jeans?

>>9455452
Those look nice...

>>9456454
Socks
