Thinking of getting these in black, do they fade after a few washes? Or stay true black? Thanks

They stay black - always wash in cold water. My son in law loved his that got for his birthday. They really look nice.

I always wash these in cold and the color stays true. My husband has them in Black, grey and khaki and loves them. He wears the black a couple of times a week.

They seem to be keeping the color fine. I have a few pair of the navy ones I've had for a few years and they've done fine. They aren't as good as say the Arc'teryx or Massif pants I have... But they're not $300... For the price point they're at, I haven't found anything as good or better.

My husband had had these for over a year. They still look brand new. I wash them in cold water turned inside out.

the 100% cotton will fade especially if you ues any laundry detergent with "brightener" will also shrink a little. recommend the rip stop poly blend. they too will bade with time especially with "brighteners"

I haven't had any issues with my darks. About to fold a load and have a pair of dark rinse denim that still looks awesome.

Mine have been washed MANY times. They are softer, no issues. I put them in the washer and dryer.

No. They fade if you use OxyClean on them, and definitely no bleach. I've had mine for a couple years and there's no shrinkage in the towel or, more importantly, on the edges. It's still perfectly flat and I wash it in hot water and dry it on high heat.

They stay a clear color but beware they shrink and they are already small. Amazon refunded me quick for them tho. Be very careful or they will realy shrink when thermo fitting

Yes. Warm cycle, no bleach, hang to dry (do not tumble dry). The label also says that the color will fade after washing.

Hi Debbie, yes, they fade to different colors or just stay one color. they are 11" hope this helps you...

Yes, it's great on dark colors! I wash my black work pants 3x a week using Molly's Suds, no fading at all!

We have had our awnings for over 2 years and have not noticed any fading. We live in a very warm client and our awnings are black, so I would think we would have encountered some fading by now, but we have not. I was just thinking this weekend about how great they look. We really love these awnings and they have been a good edition to our home.

They are dark grey.... close to black, but not really dark black. Hope that helps.

That is what i thought to when i bought them, they looked grey but they are a True Black!!

I am going to be 100% honest, I am not very fond of them. The black color faded very quickly, I washed them once and they look like I've had them for years. The pillowcase stitching came out, I recommend not buying them. If you have a pillowtop mattress they will not fit correctly.

They didn't shrink too much when I washed them, before I embroidered them. I do plan on ordering more.

Bought these for my boyfriend. I've washed them a few times now, but never dry them and haven't had any problems with them shrinking.

first couple of washes should always be in cold water and use cheer or something color safe. after a couple of washes warm or hot water can be used. you won't notice shrinkage or color fade. i am size 10 and always buy large or xl - assuming over time some shrinkage.

That's what I was aiming for but they were very dark... almost black. I did keep them however becuse they still look great!

That's a good question, I don't know. I have them since 1 year and they do not seem to fade. Seriously, the quality of these is great, you won't regret it. I can post pictures of them if you want :)
