[QUOTE="Brodie, post: 497958, member: 3372"] Today I looked closer at the highway workers on the job during my commute. They all wear that eye popping color either as a vest or as a tee shirt. They really stand out, however, several were wearing older garments and the color had noticeably faded too. Makes me wonder how dirty white my stitch would look in a year and a half - should I decide to keep it. Bear in mind people, this is just the dye that is going south. The integrity of the garment is not in question. It's just how much EEEEWWW factor you expect and how much Yuck! factor you get after wearing it for several years. And unless I miss my guess, the fabric in question is the Fluorescent High Viz Lime Yellow introduced last year. I assume the replacement fabric is the same as the original used for more than eight years. Any one with the older (pre 2007) High Viz Stitches care to chime in on this? [/QUOTE]
