Hey all

I have the Monoprice iPhone5 white bumper and the edges are looking slightly blue which I assume is from my jeans. Anyone else or just a one off fault?
 
This is normal as the dye will bleed onto the case. This is why I stopped getting white cases :/
 
Some materials make it easy for jeans to bleed unto the color. I've found this to be true for most soft rubbery silicone cases.

Not at all that I don't believe you, but could you toss up a picture or two?

At least it's blue.

Give it another month or 2 and it will be turning a grungy, dingy color from hand oils.

I tend to like to wear dark colored jeans and this happens with my shoes all of the time. It has also started to happen with my otterbox commuter case ( in pink and white). With my shoes I have always used a mr clean magic eraser and it comes right off. Haven't tried this on the otterbox though.
