I had the same problem. Month 3 is the magic month. Fading like crazy with ease.

Thanks for the comments, guys! yeah, i'd say three to four months is really the go time. i washed mine after three months, and then wore then the following six without a wash as i noticed they were starting to really change. I'd also recomend vacations to sweaty tropical locales to get the honeycombs going (took mine on vacation to Costa Rica).

CMF, thanks, although the depth of color was the one thing that i thought the camera wasn't quite portraying accurately. There are a ton of subtle blue tones...

I know it's a fiesta of APC pics within the last few pages (as always), but i thought i would share mine cause i just washed them for the first time. Soaked in tea when they were new. WHooo

Combs is ridic, newrookie.

[nairb49]

My RRDS pale in comparison.

Bored, and kind of bored with, my RRDS.

Haven't worn them in a while, so thought I'd wash them and see if anything comes of it.

After pics in a couple hours.

Hmm, seems I should spend more money on a camera than jeans....

In any case, these probably aren't "ready" but what the heck.

those look great, how long you have you been wearing them

[newrooky]

I got them at the end of last summer, so a year of ownership, but i have worn them for probably around half, rather a little less than half of the time. Probably between 4-5 months of everyday wear in the end.

hadn't been wearing the APCs hardly at all since I got my Samurais, so I thought I'd throw em in the wash and revive them. They had probably only 4 months or so of wear, but I really would rather them not be ridiculously contrasted anyway, so I'm happy with them at the moment...I'll continue skating in them and wash them every once in a while. I want to get them reasonably light but still 3d so I have a great lighter pair of jeans. Oh and I threw them Sams in there just for porn's sake. They only have about a month in them. They're tough to bust.

those apcs look nice and subtle. they should look great over time.
