None of my umpire unis are red; My Honig's plate pants faded to an almost brownish color, not actually, literally pink. My Fech's are fading to a more graceful light gray, but whatever, they no longer look the best, and in another year or so will likely tend toward the brownish color, too.

The effect of sun (UV?) on dye is not a pure lightening effect, but frequently has a yellowing effect.
