[QUOTE="Brodie, post: 1438054, member: 3372"] It's about time for a new 'Stitch. The old one is going on 10 years old and about 170,000 (s)miles. I'm looking to get a tan color with Yellow ballistics. Way back in 2010 I got one of their shot run Lime-Yellow Darien jackets, and about a month later it was recalled because of severe color fading. It was quickly fading to a [B]dirty white[/B] with a slight sickly greenishyellow undertone. I have seen highway workers wearing their Lime-Yellow vests faded in such a manner and jumped on the recall for a Yellow replacement; which served me well, up to and including the point of impact. It got cut off of me by the Paramedics; they sure love their scissors. I have herd that Tan tends to fade a bit, but does it fade to a dirty white? Or will it still be a recognizable tan color after a few years in the sun?

Please speak up. Thanks ! Brodie 🙂 [/QUOTE]
