Can't remember the quality, I don't know if they were lighter, I never bought one, about jeans I've always been a classic guy. Yes, perhaps some had a worn appearance that simulated a "rustic" look. But I'm pretty sure "stone wash" in Peru was a brief and temporary fad too, can't remember the exact year but it was mid 80s cause I was in college and some friends used them.
