< Home < HF-Chat ~ Whats the best way to wash your jeans?
I usually wash my jeans, then hang dry them. You can put them in the dryer, but there is a chance that they might shrink. You can always dry them on low or the delicate cycle.
I just put mine in the washer with the jeans inside out. I only dry them if I want to shrink them.
Me too! I also only wash them in COLD. Then I put them in the dryer for just a few minutes on LOW to get the wrinkles out and then hang them up to dry. However, if they are jeans that I want to shrink, I dry them on high heat.
1 cup of vinegar in your wash will help prevent fadage--luvapup told me that one i use it with all my dark washes and other dark clothes now.
and yeah, i am like most others. i wash in cold and i dry mine on low heat, unless they are tighter, then i hang dry.
I have heard previously that if you don't like the potato-chip crispness of the jeans after a hang-dry, you can throw them into the dryer on "fluff" for a couple of minutes prior to wearing but I've never tried that myself.
i wash mine inside out, cold water, and do low heat drying. i think it's the high heat or abrasive cycles that kill it. all my jeans have lasted me years... i can't do airdry. plus i always forget to pull them out, lol.

Agree with most of the people here.... cold wash inside out, and air dry unless I need them to shrink. When I am at home, I always toss my jeans into the dryer on high for a few minutes before wearing them inbetween washes. That fluffs them up and makes them look nicer plus warm jeans are better to put on!
