I don't think a wash will remove the fade.
It's possibly dried salt, I'd soak them in warm water, agitate for a few mins and drip dry, if it's salt, most of that will go away, if it's a real fade, then it won't

Thank you both so much!
I’ll give your suggestions a try and I appreciate the quick replies.

@Brandrea i don’t think your parka will ever be completely free of indigo stains. I’ve had a white jacket professionally cleaned a few times and the stains are still there. I don’t care about it but I forgot to tell the cleaners before the first time that it’s not important. They told me they were not able to remove the stains when I picked up the jacket.

@DrPat Thanks for that.
It’s mostly on the inside of the jacket and it really doesn’t bother me a whole lot either. I guess I just noticed how much there was the other day and thought I should maybe remove some of it.
I’m going to try Adam’s spot clean approach and see if it works to take some of it away.

@Brandrea The bottom of your jeans remind me of a photo that Haraki-san posted in the past of his pair of denim:

@cityofdelusion Damn … I’m in good company !

I need some help with a denim decision - which heavyweight denim should I choose?
I'm set on the 777 cut, and I'm considering the following options:- XHS
- XHS ib
- UHR
I have a 666 in 25oz, so I know what to expect. I have no experience with the UHR fabric, though.
So, let me have some opinions, please. -
@Tago-Mago I'd also consider a second-hand pair, if I could only find someone who'd be willing to sell it to me
-
@Tago-Mago …and you’ll throw that list out the window once you get there.

^^^ agree
Everytime i put on XHS after UHR I'm surprised with how soft and heavy they feel and then when I put on UHR after a long time in XHS I'm surprised by how stiff and tough UHR feels. They feel so much different than the fabric weight would imply. Though if I was pressed to only have one of them I know which I'd choose without too much thought.
