How To Take Care Of Your Jeans

About this video

Weston teaches men how to properly care for and maintain their jeans to extend their lifespan and preserve their appearance. She covers washing frequency, detergent selection, washing methods for both standard and raw denim, and drying techniques, while emphasizing the importance of avoiding the dryer regardless of jean type.

Key takeaways

  • Weston recommends washing jeans only every 2-4 months under normal conditions, or use the freezer overnight to eliminate odors if jeans aren’t visibly soiled
  • Weston advises using a gentle wash cycle with cold water and dark-color detergent, then always hang-drying jeans rather than using a dryer, which can damage stretch materials and cause fading
  • Weston explains that raw denim requires hand-washing in a bathtub with cold water and careful attention to where it dries due to color bleeding, while standard pre-washed jeans can be machine-washed on a gentle cycle
