TO WASH OR NOT TO WASH

Many people choose not to wash their denim fearing that it will damage the fabric even when they are dirty. I recommend that you should not wash your denim at least during the first six month or more. Why? Because during the first month the personal signs of wear, created by your own body, will appear. Your denim then becomes unique and personal!
Instead you could hang it out and air it sometimes to avoid any unpleasant smells odours.

Of course you have to wash it sometimes. Before you wash them turn your jeans inside out and wash with similar colours. Make sure that you use a washing agent without bleach. If you require further contrast, wash at 60 degrees. On the other hand, if you want the denim to retain to original colour wash at lower temperatures of 30-40 degrees. Do not tumble dry. Remember that the jeans may shrink one size after first wash and colour transfer may occur. You should always check the washing instructions!
