Can I dye white Jeans black?

[FortyFacedFuckers]

Made an error in my style judgement and bought white jeans that I will never wear again.
Can I dye them black without ending up with some bizarre tie dye effect?

Yes.

Use Dylon machine dye.

oh thank you excited of to but some dylon

If the stitching is polyester than that won't take the dye.

Thanks I will watch out for that.

Usually with jeans the stitching won't take the dye. So you might end up with a contrast stitching effect...

I wouldn't. I have had great results with dyeing but I only use black for reviving faded black things. Even 100% cotton things that dye black a treat usually have polyester thread and it doesn't take the dye.

(I too have a pair of hardly worn white jeans but I'm either going to sell them or take them to the charity shop unless I miraculously lose half a stone)

oh maybe best not to but I guess if it doesn't work its no big loss.

I'd go for a pale colour because the stitching won't be as obvious.

Maybe try running over the stitches with a black laundry marker if they are polyester.

Just wear the white with pride!
