1. Turn your jeans inside out. It will help preserve the colour. Make sure zips are zipped up and buttons are fastened.

2. Wash them on a gentle cycle with cold water.

3. It’s best to line dry your jeans, but if you do dry them in a dryer, remove them while they’re still slightly damp - otherwise they could shrink. Use a medium to low setting.

Follow the steps mentioned above, but make sure that you use a gentle cycle and a gentle washing detergent - hand washing is the best option.

Be sure to avoid the dryer, since this could further fray any rips. If you have to use the dryer, use the lowest heat setting.

Try to limit how often you wash your jeans, since repeated washing can risk damaging the distressed look.

Follow the same steps as above, but make sure you use a colour-preserving detergent for black or darker jeans to prevent fading.

It’s also a good idea to skip the dryer and go straight to the clothesline to air dry.
