  • Jeans - A Streetwear Icon

    Jeans have long been a cornerstone of streetwear culture. From the baggy styles of the 90s to today's slim fit models, jeans have always held a special place in the hearts of us streetwear enthusiasts. But how do you actually take care of your jeans in the best way to preserve their unique character and fit into the streetwear style?

    Whether you prefer raw selvedge jeans or washed models with rips and patches, there are certain things to keep in mind when it comes to washing. Here we go through everything you need to know to keep your jeans fresh and streetwear-ready.

    Hand Washing - The Gentle Method

    To really preserve the quality and character of your jeans, hand washing is preferable. This is especially important for raw selvedge jeans that you want to develop a unique fading pattern over time. Follow these steps for a perfect hand wash:

    • Fill a tub or bathtub with lukewarm water and add a mild detergent specially designed for jeans
    • Put in the jeans and let them soak for 30-60 minutes
    • Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water until all detergent is gone
    • Hang the jeans to drip dry, avoid direct sunlight and heat sources

    Machine Washing - When It Needs to Be Quick

    Sometimes you don't have time for hand washing and machine washing can be an option. But be sure to follow these guidelines to minimize wear and tear on your jeans:

    • Turn the jeans inside out to protect any prints or patches
    • Wash in cold water on a gentle cycle
    • Use a mild detergent without bleach
    • Wash jeans separately or with similar colors to avoid discoloration
    • Hang jeans to dry, avoid the dryer

    Stain Removal the Streetwear Way

    Stains are inevitable, especially if you live an active streetwear life. But with the right techniques, most stains can be removed without negatively affecting the appearance of the jeans:

    • Apply stain remover directly to the stain and let it work according to instructions
    • Gently scrub with a soft brush or sponge
    • Rinse thoroughly with cold water
    • Repeat if necessary before washing

    For stubborn stains, try soaking the jeans in cold water with a little detergent overnight before washing them as above.

    Preserving the Character of Jeans

    An important part of the streetwear style is letting jeans age naturally and develop a unique look over time. To achieve this, you should wash your jeans as rarely as possible, especially when it comes to raw jeans.

    Between washes, you can freshen up your jeans by hanging them outside to air out or putting them in the freezer overnight to kill bacteria. If the jeans start to smell, you can also try lightly spraying them with vodka or vinegar for a refreshing effect.

    Streetwear Is About Personal Style

    Ultimately, streetwear is about expressing your personal style and attitude through the clothes you wear. So don't be afraid to experiment and put your own stamp on your jeans. Rips, patches, pins, and other DIY details are all welcome elements in streetwear culture.

    By taking care of your jeans the right way, you can preserve their unique character and history while continuing to develop your own streetwear style. As the legendary musician and style icon Pharrell Williams once said, "Jeans represent democracy in fashion." So regardless of your background or lifestyle, let jeans become part of your personal streetwear story.
