THE COLOR YOUR DYEING YOUR BOOTS HAS TO BE DARKER THAN THE COLOR OF THE PLASTIC.

couldn't you just bleach the plastic? i mean its the same concept, boil water, and instead of throwing in RIT dye just throw in clorox? i think that would do the trick. then you could make anything any color you desire.

Are you serious? No, it does not work that way. When you put bleach in the wash do all your colored clothes come out white?

I just finished mine this morning. The booters work excellently for dying cause of all the white. Here are the pics.

I dyed the tongue red, the buckles green, and the backing red. The design on the backing was the stock design, but it changed colors when I dyed it.

TO EVERYONE WITH RAMPAGES, YOU CAN EASILY REMOVE THE UPPER CUFF(THE BROWN PART) FROM THE BOOT! JUST UNSCREW THE CUFF ADJUSTMENT AND PULL THEM APART!

If ski boot company's were smart they would start selling all white boots with dye that you could purchase to customize them. I wish the new spks were both white, not just one boot so you could dye them any color. I don't understand the spk designs now.

All you guys with the SPKS, did you leave the black pieces on when you dyed it and since they are black nothing happened or did you take your boots apart? Someone might have answered this and I just missed it but I don't think so.
