    Jeans

    I think more importantly it's how you wash your jeans that wears them out. I never put mine in the machine. I soak them cold and then hang them to dry.

    Ebay- an adventure in clothing restoration

    My wife took a pair of cotton barkcloth curtains that looked like somebody had cleaned a pig pen with them and soaked them in Oxyclean...turns out they were off white with a nice atomic pattern on them. Didn't fade the colors at all.

    BTW, just checked and they've got the stuff you're describing on their site. I dig the henley, but does anyone know where to get just a plain one with the cuffed sleeves? I've got a Levi's Sunset, but I'd like to get some more for every day use.

    Choke, sputter....sticker shock! That pin checked work jacket is nice. Kind of misleading calling reproductions "One Of A Kind Vintage" though.
