Anyone have a good grasp on the shade they wore? It seems to vary in artists' interpretatoons between a horizon blue to an actual sky blue. |

They were made out of the same type of denim as Levi's, and so would fade about like your blue jeans. |

Interesting, I didn't realize it was denim. Was the helmet also covered in the same denim? |
