When you are washing dirty clothes in large quantities (mixed), make sure you turn the pants so that the inside is outside in order to minimize color loss due to friction with other clothing when laundered. Make sure you use the smallest round during washing. Colder water, the better. Because of warm or hot water can break fibers and make the color more quickly faded clothes.
