I got those repro pouches from MilitaryTour.com a few years ago, but they came in a weird colour(blu-ish, if I recall correctly) , something that I'd never seen before with real pouches from WW2. So, I tried my hand at fading them with a diluted bleach mixture. I dunked them in and before I could count to two they were a light grey, it was real fast (too much bleach, haha).

They're a little too light for my taste, but alot better than the original colour.

Perhaps a darker grey dye job is in order?
