    Does anyone know where I could get a pair of off-white painted/sprayed black?
    They are lovely dressy shoes but have gone quite shabby so I want to give them a new lease of life - and a new colour!

    I remember going to Youghal years ago to get a pair of white shoes painted blue to match a wedding outfit. Just wondering if anyone in the city is offering this service now.

    How about you just buy some new black shoes :confused:

    To answer your question - I don't know anyone sorry.

    You're right. I COULD buy a new pair but I'm not ready to give up on this pair yet. We're slap bang in the middle of a recession, after all!:)

    A shoe repair shop can try for you if it's leather, they can use a leather dye, but it won't be 100% and may come out.

    Theres a little cobblers on Princes street, shoestrings I think. Have gotten loads of shoes covered/dyed/rehealed there. Worth a try!
