Wash N Fade

[BigSleep]

Anyone remember a product from back in the 70s called Wash N Fade?

This was back before you could buy jeans that were washed or faded. Yes there was a time.

This was a packet of powder that you would add to the washer with your jeans to lighten the indigo.

Man those elephant bells were cool once they faded! Kidding. I kid. I jest.

Gawd, I missed that marketing trick altogether!

That's why faded jeans were a badge of honor, back then.

Just as the good jeans got faded to tone would come the first split.
