Bruise or Black-Blue Jeans?

[Ludeykrus]

I searched, but couldn't find much.

I am wondering which companies make a "bruise" colored jean? I'm thinking jeans that are blue base-dyed, but with a black top-dye. They may either appear very very dark blue/black, or black, but will usually fade out to a blue base. Capisci?

I believe Context had Surface To Air's that were this color a little while back, but not anymore. I think their Even Steven's are also what I'm talking about...

Some SE x Iron Heart models were black overdyed indigo that looked quite nice.

There is a pair of Diors that are blue with a black overdye also the first Self Edge x Ironhearts BK version were blue jeans with a black overdye. Last pair I think that is a black overdye is the Denim Junkie Horseriders. pics of the DJ-HR1

I think you two are talking about two completely different things here.
Ludeykrus i think is referring to a sulfur top dyed fiber where as Totally Epic is referring to an overdye.
Right?

^possibly.

Kiya, that sounds right as I know what a true overdye is, but can't see the pictures until I get off work, so I can't say until later.

If I understand you right, the Sorahikos Suminandos from 45RPM would fit in this category.

After checking the photos, both look great! While the Dior's are more what I was originally thinking (contrasting warp/weft threads, non-overdye), the overdye'd IronHearts look outstanding! Does anyone still sell those?

So I guess both can look good, so any more suggestions on either?
