Has anybody on here ever successfully recreated the tex green color from the Sears tradeware coveralls and an attempt to make their own? If so I’m curious what you did to recreate the color. Seriously considering something I seen on another post or a person was talking about using rit color remover and then trying to recreate the color using rit dye. I just got done comparing their color palettes to my replicas from creepy customs and there’s definitely nothing on their chart that perfectly matches. There’s some stuff that’s semi close but it’s looking like I’m going to have to try my hand at it myself. Just got some Roebucks for about 30 bucks that looked charcoal gray in the photos and when I got them they’re more of a darker blue but considering the cost of them and the closeness of the look I’m not against using them to experiment to try to recreate that color. Any good pictures of your Sears tradewares in tex green in really good lighting would be appreciated. The better the lighting the better I might be able to use those photos to help figure the color. If anybody has achieved this using the rit dye let me know what you did I’m curious. Thanks everybody 
I used to dye vintage sears all the time before giving up and just recreating tex green on my replicas.
Theres no out of the bottle color that matches Tex. You must take the coveralls original color and overdye it to get even remotely close.
I did maybe 150 vintage suits and got close but never spot on. Tex green is a TOUGH color to get 100%
Thanks for sharing that info. You’re replicas are without a doubt damn good and I’m honored to have a pair of them. Short of actually seeing The actual tex green color in front of me yours are the closest thing that I’ve got to go off of in person. I’ve got some ideas. When you say you have to overdye the original color is that going off of like a charcoal color or any color really? I’ve never used rit dye before so I don’t know how it does dying over other colors. My Sears Roebucks that I have turned out to be more of a dark blue than a charcoal gray like they looked in the picture which is why I was thinking of trying color remover and then toying around with them until I got the color as close as I could. Thinking of eventually trying my hands at actually doing some replicas of my own I just got a play around with my sewing skills a little bit so I can pull off what I’m looking to do.
