More Details

How to order:

  • Choose an item of clothing from your wardrobe that is 100% natural fibres - Natural dye will not stick to synthetics
  • Check that it doesn't weigh more than 400g per garment
  • If your items weigh over, you MUST arrange a consult with us prior to sending it in
  • If your items are small, such as a bandanna or a pair of socks, please get in touch and we'll do our best to accommodate
  • Once you've submitted your order, you'll receive an email with our confirmation and instructions on where to send your garment
  • Pop it in the post to us!

What next?

  • Once we've received your garment, we'll weigh it, photograph it & tag it to ensure we can keep track of it
  • We will scour it to remove any oils and other resists possible
  • We'll mordant it so the dye sticks to the fibres
  • Then dye it to the colour you've chosen 
  • wash your garment to remove residual colour & dry it.
  • We'll then photograph it again so you have before & after photos
  • If we notice any issues from the dye such as deodorant stains, we'll send you an image with recommended adjustments and take it from there!
  • Once we're both happy, we'll ship the garment back to you to enjoy!

Please note this process takes approximately 4 weeks. If your garment weighs over the 400g limit, we may have to leave it out of the service. We have an absolute limit that we can fit into our system - this isn't carry-on luggage! - so if you and a few others go-over weight, we simply cannot run the service.
