Is it possible to re-dye a faded pair of jeans? I have some 501's which are just perfect but wearing them for years had faded the heck out of them. Just curious. Thanks.

It is possible to dye them, but I doubt you'll get the effect you're going for. You can't dye them and then "re-fade" them, if that's what you want to do. If you dye them, they'll be an even, probably dark shade of color.

Thanks. I was looking just to get them darker again. I'm too sentimental and don't want to part with them.
