How are these dyed? Will they fade?

RE: Iron Heart Products - What do you think we should make?
Indigo/Black 634, please.
Somewhere I saw that the 888s were coming out in an indigo/black fabric. Love the idea of the 888s but I tried them on at Selfedge in SF and they looked waay to affected on me with the super high rise. Guys there suggested next run might come with a slightly lower rise, which might be OK.
But really, 634 cut is pretty ideal, and it seems to be a shadow version is long overdue. Tonal stitching too, of course. Any weight denim would be fine, though I'm partial to mid-weight 18oz stuff.

RE: IH-555SG - 21oz Serge Super Slim in Indigo & Black
Another vote here for doing this 21oz serge in the 634 cut. Indigo serge (which is indigo/indigo, right?) would be nice for this classic cut, especially since the indigo/indigo duck 634 is discontinued and the 634 indigo/indigo denim is endangered. Fade-y black would be nice too…
Google suggests "serge" is a twill weave (left hand 2/2) that is sorta something between a denim twill and a duck in terms of feel, durability, stretchiness.
