ABSTRACT:
The method of the present invention is used to create an overall worn look with areas of heavy wear in specific areas of a new garment's fabric to simulate the wear that occurs from the normal wear of a garment over a prolonged period of time. The method of the present invention comprises the steps of sandblasting the fabric of the new garment to be treated in specific areas in which worn marks simulating areas of heavy wear are desired and treating the entire fabric so that it fades and additional random areas of wear are created. According to the method disclosed, areas of heavy wear occur only in those areas of the fabric which is directly exposed to sandblasting, while the remainder of the fabric obtains a random faded look such that the overall appearance of the new garment simulates that of an old garment that has been naturally worn for a prolonged period of time.
