Even though some denims come pre-rinsed and are ready to wear, you may still want to wash them. You wouldnt want to know how clean the production floor can be.
You may use fabric softeners so the denim looks better and feels softer. All denim garments should be washed at medium temperature and low dry cycle. You can also air dry by just hanging or laying out flat. Wash denims together not with other garments and never use bleach. Have an old pair of faded jeans? Throw them in with the new one when washing and the indigo dye from the new one will refresh them.
How to keep your denim color dark
Wash in cold water, short cycle and low heat dry. Never use bleach. Wash inside out and add a thimble of vinegar. Only wash when needed, denim will naturally fade when washed
How to fade your jacket
Wash in warm water and medium heat dry
Never use bleach
Use longer wash cycle.
The more you wash, the more it fades.
Do the fade work yourself using RIT Fast Fade *Not recommended with embroidery
Wash in hot water or high dry heat. This can cause the seams to warp and weaken, causing them to separate
After Washing
After washing your jacket the first few times, you will notice small threads exposed mostly around seams, pockets, and button holes. These are normal and can be easily removed by using nail clippers or small scissors. Either method will work, be careful not to snag or cut your denim. We do not recommend using a lighter.
