How am I misinformed?
btw sick ponr

Because the type of dye used doesn't have as much to do with fading as you think. Synthetic indigo and natural indigo are essentially identical, all things considered.

The dying process, however, makes a huge difference. If the threads are dyed right to the core, fading will be slow and difficult; there's no "raw" thread underneath a "surface layer of dye".


Plenty of black denims fade really well (Black Imperial, for example). The reason the fading isn't as pronounced is due to a lack of visible contrast, rather than some magical property of the dye.
 
The trick is to do some labor intensive stuff IN your jeans... I bike, and my jeans get faded up faster than tomatoes in the mississippi sun!

They stretched out a grip, I should of sized down 2. The literally gained like 3 waist sizes so there are no distinctive fades (smokes, phone, lighter) but I think they look decent
