Care For Your (Denim/ Wool/ Cotton)

[bagley920]

I might try soaking them in the tub and maybe the "color" will even out. They are a little big anyways

[Finn666]

i dont think the color will even out…just wearem and you`re good mate.

[madmonday]

bagley come on off the ledge & wear them jawns.

they aren't that bad . . . at least from the photos 

[Giles]

^^^^ I agree.  The colour will not even out just by soaking them.  If they are no worse that the photos, I'd just wear them…..

motivation to wear them hard

[bagley920]

I'm gonna wear them regardless. I love these jeans, varicose veins and all!

[riffblaster general]

Just rock em. Beat em up. This will give them their own character.

[bagley920]

True, never thought about it that way. I'll just get them really nasty and then refuse to wash them. That'll show her haha!

[Finn666]

maybe we should have moved this to the 634 thread, no?

Cool - saves me time. I'll stick to airing then…

I wash mine in the machine (inside out) then air dry them. I probably wash them more than most, but less often than other trousers. Never any issues and over the year I've had them and no machine caused problems, with the exception of where I'd already busted the hem front and back, and machine washing made it worse. Giles and the Union Special came to the rescue this week though, and they're now as good as new.

More of a "Care For Your Wool" question, but this thread needs a bump anyways. Who has recommendations/ preferences for a electric Pilling/ fabric Shaver? Thanks

[injunjack]

at least those we have here, cheap chinese ones which cost like 2€, do their job for some time, but overall I think they are useless crap.

Lando, i think they all suck.  i have a little metal comb with really fine teeth for the purpose of piling & all that.

will take a picture of it tonight.

Thanks guys. I will take both advisories into account and I will keep an eye out for that flick mm. Cheers

Thanks M. Where can I score one?

Is there a way to get rid of dryer creases?  Was trying to shrink some new jeans more w/ a hot dry but looks like I got an ugly crease on em….should I re-soak or try to steam/iron this out?
