Washing Jeans...

This is why I always, always do my own washing and ironing.

Would never let a women do it.

Should have gone to the shop and bought her those fags.

Just don't wash them - that or inside out low temp low spin short time - they should only need a freshen up

Edit - low temp is 30 or below....

Seriously, who still washes stuff at 60? Anyway, another thing, don't wash them too often. Unless you are really dirty they don't need washing often.

I'm sure someone on here bought a load of jeans, ask him if you can have a pair?

It was Shep Cobain, he had 600 odd pairs of them.

Oh and when you wash new Jeans for the first time, wash them on their own. The colour can wash out a little and stain other clothes.

I've been doing my own washing since I was 15 due to this issue.

EDIT: Was for washing at 60, I find white a light shirts need it from time to time. But not for anything else.

I'm pretty sure that 60'c would denature the enzymes or something, meaning that the washing powder doesn't actually work...

Meh, happens to most of my black jeans . You can only tell outside when it is very bright. Like anyone will ever notice.

It will literally have 0 effect on your life.

get a grip.

Some smelly people here will say they only wash their jeans every 3 months.. that thread made me laugh.

Jeans don't need frequent washing, but always at 30 when you do. 60 is just for bedding and towels!

Spamalot · 14 Mar 2011 at 00:08

Yep, don't wash them.

I try to go at least 6 months.

I have to wash my jeans after every wear. Otherwise they don't feel fresh or crisp enough on the leg. I hate that worn, loose feeling.

Maybe I'm just obsessive but I can't wear anything that doesn't feel crisp and freshly washed.

I bet the crouch area smells like balls, but they say one can't smell their own balls.
