I don’t like the fade, sorry

[Misterhyde]

Hi all, I’m a total newbie, understand very little about jeans/denim, but understand enough to distinguish my 21oz IH 666’s with other jeans I have.

My problem is this, and I did use the search tool before deciding to ask experts, how can I avoid (or minimise) the criss cross fading at the back of the knees(apologies if it has a specific name) Blasphemy I know, but I really don’t like it.
Any advice……..be kind

Wash regularly

Honey combs can be very much sought after, but yeah some people just want their jeans to look "new" with minimum fades... Especially if you're in a workplace or professional setting where you don't want people seeing your faded jeans and knowing you have worn them for the past 4 months everyday and haven't washed them once! Like Giles said, washing regularly will stop high contrast fades and have more vintage fades...

You get less defined honeycombs with a more flowy cut. 555's will comb more than a 634 for instance.
