There's a stain on my favorite clothes...!

The size is perfect, so I'd like to wear it again in a different color!

・Before

・After

Since the polyester part does not dye, the stitching (white thread part) remains, and the garment is transformed into a one-of-a-kind piece that makes the most of the original material!

The lace part on the right side remains nicely.

Some customers even change their brown T-shirts to black.

A Burberry coat that had faded in the sun and turned reddish overall was re-dyed black and transformed back into a brand new black.

Faded denim jackets and jeans can be given a new lease of life with black dye.
