I think that's the marbling you'd typically get when washing denim. Same thing happened to me with some indigo denim and now it's unnoticable

So are some of my denim washes.

Anyone get spray insulation on their denim? This crap won't come off easily. Rubbing, sand paper, Razer. Nothing works without taking a bunch of Indigo off or damaging the denim.
These were before I washed them. You can see the spots down low where it's the spray insulation, sucks.

No way that is coming out without serious abrasion and/or solvent use. Both of which will be leave a visible mark and damage the fabric. I got some all over a pair of heavy Blåkladder work trousers from seven years ago. They’ve been used heavily and washed to death. That stuff looks like it did when it went on.
I’d wear the crap out of them anyway. I have a pair of 555N with wood glue ground in at various spots. Still wear them and not just for working in. Wabi sabi.

Mate they look quality. But your choice

^^watch how you dye them. I used Dylon machine dyes (several by the way), which obviously requires to use a washing machine. Turn them inside out.
I dyed my 76 and although I’m happy with it I got crease marks on the arms because I forgot to turn it inside out

On my way to buy black textile dye. Before this incident I could have worn this jeans at work with a dress shirt. Now that is out of the question. I hope the dye will cover this mess good enough.

I like the look as well.

Anybody own an RV? I think they’re referred to as caravans in Europe. Jody and I are thinking about getting one to travel with the dogs (finding hotels that will take two rotties can be a challenge, plus I’ve read enough horror stories about dogs dying in the cargo hold of planes I won’t consider it)

Travelled around last summer in a Mercedes 2500 on the Sprinter frame. Really great vehicle and much easier to park and get around in than a giant RV. There are lots of good companies that modify/put their own finish on these Mercedes. The only complaint I had was that the brakes weren't beefy enough on long downhills.

I would personally prefer something on the Sprinter frame, but having the wife and the dogs are going to make it pretty tight. Also, I would be approaching the upper limit for weight with everyone plus stuff in it. I was looking at the Airstream Interstate pretty hard. Currently thinking about a Nexus RV Viper model.

Are you sure about that? We have friends with a Sprinter, and they get two adults, four kids between ages 10 and 17, and a crap load of equipment into one and drive from Texas to Colorado at least once a year. It's decked out with a bathroom, satellite tv/internet, a fridge, and all the other comforts of modern life.
