    Metal equipment was created to have an enamel-like look to it when it is dyed, just like if you painted something metallic in real life. Similarly, cloth equipment was also designed to function the same way as real life, so the texture changes when it is dyed because the cloth is soaking up the dye.

    As both types of equipment were created like this intentionally, the team does not have any plans to change the textures.
    That really is a shame that they'd be so finicky about something like that, seems like a total waste of the shader effects that are there in the first place ;--;.

    Ah well...
