      Nice Bagley…sometimes you just have to enjoy that brutal heat in the 21oz

      Maybe it's just me but they seem to fade faster when I'm sweating in them

        That would make sense.

          Sweat is on the inside, why would they fade faster on the outside, especially on my butt

            You are wearing cotton. Cotton absorbs moisture. Moisture and abrasion cause fading. Make sense?

              I mean, the denim bleeds a lot more when it is damp.  And, I am sure it generally gets damp the whole way through.

              Unfortunately, they will start to stink a lot quicker when you do this!

                I guess I don't really notice my butt getting sweaty haha

                                  That is quite impressive.  Lovely contrast.

                                        ^^^ I also experienced faster fadings on damp raw denim stuff from sweating

                                          Thanks for the positive response guys!
                                          I really appreciate it.. 😘

                                          I've been wearing them since they were released in 12th of october 2011, to enter the SExIHxINDO16

                                          feel free to take a look : http://www.darahkubiru.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=4274&start=420#p671859

                                          and yes, I've walked around with them a lot actually, I took the bus a lot to get home from my university, and taking the bus here in jakarta will get you sweaty as hell.. Which kinda explains the contrast lap fades..
