they're prolly just dusty, which makes them look faded. i bought a car detail brush (soft bristled brush similar to a paint brush) and i dust off all theshoes that i keep outside the boxes periodically (and after every wear). keeps the blacks looking dark.

Honestly, I think its the brown paper that jordan Throws with the retro shoes. Beleive me, this also happened to my aquas and playoffs. I actually wear myshoes once a weak. I started noticing they wear getting faded from the toebox and sides. Then I thought, its to fricken paper that you have in the JordanBox. Dont Beleve me?, rub a little of that brown paper on the side of your 8s and you will see. Not to much but just a little so you can see. My 14s haventgot faded from the coundown pack because the paper they use is a White better quality paper.. Im about to order me a new pair of aquas for $100 of eastbay.

^yup. I dont like the Blak/Blak look on the retro Aquas, i want that OG/ashy look.

Water proofer.... Spray 2x's before you even wear the kicks. Thats what keeps all of my black nubuck kicks from fading... All of them are fresh, even myII's that I wear all of the time.
