Just Add Bleach

My blacks go through stages before my life style and work ethic forces me ton replace them.
It usually goes:
Corporate blacks
Show blacks
Work blacks
Painting blacks
Distressed blacks
Rags

Today I did a load of laundry and some bleach joined the party.
Unfortunately I was doing a load of blacks since it'd be a bit and I have a few gigs that call for them.
Suffice it to say a pair was permanently dropped a level.
Not so good since they were relatively new blacks (about 3 months old) and I liked them but it could have been worse, I suppose.
