prefaded
Artificially worn looking
Prefaded describes fabric, especially denim, that has been treated during manufacturing to appear worn or faded before purchase.
Jeans sold with a broken-in look are prefaded: prefaded jeans with strategic wear at the knees.
The process saves buyers months of wearing to achieve that lived-in appearance.
