Opinions on a capo fade?

I'm getting a new pair of raw denim and I'm thinking of putting a capo in my back pocket and have it fade in that pattern over time. The actual design of the guitar capo looks like this: http://www.johnnykeys.com/images/los...found/capo.gif

I was just posting to get any thoughts for this fade. Would the pattern actually come out visible? I know a lot of people don't really know what a capo is but I think it would just be different from the usual back pocket fades. My main concern is whether or not the fade would actually come out in the right shape assuming I taped it down securely into the back pocket or if it would come out looking like an indistinct blob?

Wouldn't that be extremely uncomfortable anyway? I'm all down for tricky fades, just not so into the capo business.

I wouldn't think it would be very comfortable but I'm trying to think of something different and I'm at my wits end when it comes to denim creativity. I'm guessing the standard wallet back pocket fade should do?

Anyone else on HF have any other input?

I like how a condom fade suggests that it has been in the pocket forever...which also suggests a level of recklessness or a serious dry spell!
