Care For Your (Denim/ Wool/ Cotton)

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

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
-
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

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?

The problem here is that typically the crease on the jeans is the part that rubs the most against the inside of the dryer. This causes the threading in that area to become weaker/ lighter and it kind of sets in. You can always just soak them real quick to get them wet and then hang dry them Maybe even iron right before they are completely dry in the specific area of concern. I am not very familiar with this issue but this is what I would do. Anyone who have more experience should speak up.

Thanks Lando…I'm hoping they're not ruined but there's still enough indigo I can wear these out for a while before it'll be noticeable. But yeah it's more of a "damaged" crease...don't think I can really fix it.

Guess just live and learn. In any case, they are perfectly fine and with some wear that crease will fade away. Photos would be great if you happen to get a chance or are able. Cheers
