Guest nrhoads Posted January 12, 2009 Report Share Posted January 12, 2009 Hello. Does anyone know why the Advantage Max-4 HD pattern turns green when exposed to sunlight? But after its removed from sun exposure, it turns back to normal? I have a drake waterfowl jacket and a pair of gamehide gloves that both do this. They also seem to be made of the same material. Max-4 HD however, will not change colors on materials like my lacrosse waders that are also the max-4 pattern? I am a little concerned, I dont know if my jacket and gloves are defecteive, even though they are made by different manufactures? I can find nothing from realtree that describes this color change. And knowledge would be great. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

duckslayer Posted January 13, 2009 Report Share Posted January 13, 2009 I have never noticed that with my max-4 HD. Does it cause the ducks to see you? Sorry I can't help more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billkay Posted January 14, 2009 Report Share Posted January 14, 2009 Different fabrics will make each pattern look different. Different batches of the same clothing may appear different as well. I imagine it's because it comes from different rolls of material. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Team Realtree Posted January 14, 2009 Report Share Posted January 14, 2009 Bill is correct. Different manufacturers and different fabrics with different UV ray protection. If it is real bad, you might see if it can be exchanged. Email me at [email protected] and let me know what the brand is. Thanks, S Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest nrhoads Posted January 14, 2009 Report Share Posted January 14, 2009 - S Its Drake Waterfowl Systems, MST Eqwader Quarter Zip, Advantage Max-4 HD, size XXL. I also spoke with Drake Waterfowl customer service and they said to return it to the retailer I bought it at. I bought it at Academy in Texas. Thanks for your help. Please let me know if you find anything out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevebeilgard Posted January 14, 2009 Report Share Posted January 14, 2009 follow what they told you. return it and get a new set. i've had max 4 for years (whitewater d.u. stuff) and it's perfect. never changes. i think you have a bad set of cloth.
