Indigo has to be converted to the leuco-base form in a dye bath because indigo is insoluble in water and has to be converted to a water-soluble form through an oxygen-reduction process. This action produces luecoindigo which it used to dye clothes. The clothe can be converted back to an indigo form thereafter by air drying.
