i thought of one but i forcotton what it was 

Rick denim/leather, tee and shoes (showing of socks was unintentional)

Old cheap sweats

Old leather rucksack*

Tempted to make a Luxury Problems one as well but that'd probs be a tad overkill

Nothing arty but I made a couple of Andy Stott tees for gigs and the like

Any other iphone 5 users find that the maximum volume level is a lot quieter in comparison to other iphone/ipod models? Im quite fond of playing my tunes on tinnitus mode all of the time but I feel like the max volume on the 5 is probably around the equivalent of 4/5s of the volume on other models.

is there some sneaky way around this?

From exp. all dye is destined to fade over time especially with wash and exposure to sunlight.

I would imagine the rate of fading would depend on the process of dying, absorbance of dye and 'wear&tear'.

I would also IMAGINE any sort of external 'superficial' dying would not be as 'fade-proof' as the dying during the pieces manufacturing process.

HOWEVER I have not really indulged in any professional re-dying or the likes but I would IMAGINE it would be similar to sort of polishing or treating a leather shoe for example, a piece that would require continual maintenance to perserve.

How much u luf dat denim homi ?

tl;dr I have no idea but I THINK this is how it would turn out.

Perhaps I was a little generous when I said "faded over time" since the shade had gotten considerably lighter after just the first wash (even played by the care label rules bruv). I see what you're saying tho and kinda thought that would be the case. No chance I'd be paying £5+ on dye every other week or so just to maintain their colour either. Also they're just 100% cotton sweatpants which makes me think it might work a bit better than if they were denim etc..

Gonna email a few places and see what they've got to say

Has anyone here had experience with sending any pieces of clothing off to a professional dyer? I've got a pair of black acne johns that have faded to an almost grey shade over time which I'd like to get back to their original colour. I've used the black dylon powder in the past but it wouldn't even hold on 100% cotton white tees after 1 wash and often ended up in a shade of blue instead. Heard similar stories about dye from other companies as well so I'm a little sceptical of trying it myself.
