Marker or paint for rubber shoe soles
I have a pair of shoes which have a blue rubber sole and edge. I need to make the edge black. Is there a marker or possibly a paint pen that will last? I also looked at shoe edge dressing but it seems to be for leather not rubber.

I have tried a sharpie and brushed on spray paint with unsatisfactory results.

I've heard Rit DyeMore can work.

Some edge dressing is only for leather, but they make edge dressing that works on rubber too.
