I dyed it with Rit dye. I kind of wish it was a lighter green, the "Emerald Green" kinda sucks, but I like it loads better than how it was(pic related for those who don't know how this jacket looks normally)

No prob! So, I have tried dyeing this thing like literally 4-5 times, and I couldn't get it to work. I was getting pissed because it's a great jacket, but the tan color and the bright red just sucks so bad.

Here's what I got to finally work. I boiled the jacket with a bottle of "emerald green" and half a bottle of "dark brown" Rit dye and half a bottle of vinegar for just under an hour(40 min I think), it boiled over a few times, which was annoying and a pain in the dick to clean up. I then let it sit in the pot on the stove for about 18-20 hours(very important, do not skip this step!), then I lifted it out of the pan and let it drip back into the pan in case I wanted to try and dye it it again. I then put in in a hallway to dry, and once it was fairly dry I rinsed it in my shower(which stains, but you can get 99% of it up with a magic eraser and some bleach.) It takes almost two days to dry, so it will look super dark at first, but it's just really wet. Oh, it's 50% cotton, 50% poly, in case you need to know that. Good luck, and post your results! These are great jackets for $9-10.
