The Color of my jeans is rubbing off on my mk Vii

Post by Mola Ram »

I wore my mk vii with a pair of jeans for 10 days,
my entire trip to florida, and there are now blue patches
of color on the back of my mk vii.
Anyone have this same problem?
Kindest Regards
Mola :D

This has never happened to me but I imagine that seeing as you were in Florida, I think the humidity probably had something to do with it. :junior: -IJ

That's pretty strange. Were they new? Most of my jeans are so old there's hardly any dye in them anymore.

A few weeks new, but broken in enough. I have about 4 pairs of jeans and wear jeans every day unless its really hot. That could be a possiblity though. I and going to try and wash the blue out/and or re dye the bag.
Kind Regards :lol:

If it's on the back, I wouldn't worry. Chaulk it up to genuine travel distressing.

Molorom;
I wouldn't worry too much if it's on the back of the bag though you could always wash it, these bags are made to handle it and I've done it a few times. Try a low temp first...
