So I just got a new pair of Attack Pants in the Verde pattern. When I set them next to the Tiburon shirt I already have (in the same color) the pants look kind of faded. Is this just due to the difference in materials? Has anyone else noticed this? I hope I didn't get a pair from a messed up production run or something.

I notice this as well. Has to be the material. I have the attack pants and the alpine pants, both are different shades.
 
Whatever their process is for dying the fabrics, it seems it turns out different for different materials. It's all slightly different shades. Some fabrics just wont take dyes as good as others but you would think they could get it pretty close. It's not just Kuiu, I've seen it from several other companies too with different fabrics.
 
My attacks are a bit lighter than my guide jacket and pants. I bought them 2 years ago. It's because of the materials
 
My attacks(verde) looked awfully faded compared to my tiburon shirt as well..I called CS and they told me ,it's the way the higher quality material absorbs or accepts the coloring...(hope that's worded right)...so...?? Love the pants though!!!
 
Same here, bummed about it..Funny they say that cause my guide pants are a lot brighter than the attack pants
