Dye my Recon Sling

[HuumanCreed]

Disclaimers. I held my own safety. Not your. I felt confident enough to do it. Etc etc. After researching and thinking about it for a while l decided to do it. I inspection the material and can not seen any deterioration of sewing, fibers, or stitches.

Again. Im not saying camo matter for hunting. I just wanted to do it.

Used DyeMore Chocolate Brown. Slightly warm water. Bundled it up with rubber bands for possible camo result, and threw it in bucket. Soak for 8 hrs. Rinse with tap water until water ran clear. Hang dry for 48 hrs in garage.

Extremely happy with result. No odors at all. Not shiny either. Wish l also did the pouch that came with it.

It looks good. What color was it before?

Looks great. I’m intrigued by your clips between the panels.

I simply hand sew a piece of webbing loop that has one male/female combo each top panel. It keep them together. For climbing and walking. Once im at height. I unclip and adjust to what i want. Its basically what the transformer and latitude does except i use cheap buckles. Not load bearing or pretty, but easy to do.

Nicely done. Personally I am not planning to dye my Recon, but it looks good.

I wondered if the very slight shiny-ness of the Recon would be an issue, but I have had groups of does close to my tree and they haven't picked me out.
