Denim Experts on Whether or Not to Freeze Your Jeans in the Fridge DenimWeek
, but some jeans-related questions remain. Namely, how to care for that new pair of lightly distressed straight leg jeans you just invested in. Since you spent good money on the new jeans you've fallen in love with, it makes sense to pay extra attention to the care and fit of them. At least until you spill something on them, though—don't worry—we have a hack for combatting that problem too.
We spoke to experts at major denim brands like Levi's, Rag & Bone, Citizens of Humanity, MOTHER, and American Eagle to get the low-down on everything denim-care. They answered the tough questions like how often to wash your jeans, and settled, once and for all, the debate on whether or not freezing your jeansWe recommend washing less, wash on cold, then line dry."—"The less you wash your jeans, the better.
"Science tells us that at-home freezers are not cold enough to kill the gross stuff: germs, bacteria, or odors. You can toss them in the freezer for a little while to get rid of some funkiness, sure, but scientifically you're not really doing anything to clean them.""There is no reason to store jeans in the freezer. Scientifically I am not sure if this method actually reduces bacteria buildup, more like slows it down. However, we do notice it helps with the smell.
"I've tried it. It never worked for me, just made me very uncomfortable. Instead, ball up the jeans inside out, quickly hold under hot water, and throw in the dryer."—I've tried the shower, the bath, and the ocean! Again, this is really something you do with raw jeans, and I wouldn't say it makes them more fitted, but it makes them mold to your body. The key is getting the denim wet while you're wearing them, which helps shape the denim to your body.
