Jeans have become part of our life and today it seems difficult to do without them. They wear these clothes for walks and work, travel and rest. The popularity of these trousers is fully justified. Jeans bring variety to the creation of their image, they are liked by children and adults, men and women. These trousers are always in line with fashion trends. With proper care, they can last for quite some time.

Do I need to iron my jeans?

For some reason, many people think that jeans can not be ironed at all. And they wear them every day. But if you want to always look good, ironing should be constant. Some people think that after washing, it is enough to shake wet pants to make them look pompous. In fact, it is useless, such a dense material like jeans, even after shaking, will not be able to smooth out well. Folds inevitably form, and folds lead to the fact that the threads begin to wear out at the bends, and the fabric quickly fade.

Therefore, the jeans should be ironed after washing. Subsequently, periodically iron to maintain a neat appearance.

Ironing technique

So that irregularities do not form, it is necessary to iron jeans with a warm iron, observing certain rules.

  • Only damp trousers can be ironed. If the material is very dry, it must be moistened with a spray bottle. The liquid is sprayed evenly over the surface of the trousers, especially on very wrinkled or hard places.
  • If you don't have a spray bottle, you can iron your jeans through cheesecloth. It must be moistened, spread over the surface of the material, then carried out with an iron. The "Steam supply" mode will help to cope with small creases.
  • In order not to injure the facial fibers, ironing should take place on the wrong side. If you start ironing the right side, the fabric will begin to shine and shine.
  • The pants must be turned out before ironing. You need to start ironing pants from the seams, setting a low temperature regime. The seams are usually made of nylon. At high temperatures, nylon may simply melt.
  • The normal temperature for ironing denim is between 140 and 190 degrees. The thickness of the material and its density are of great importance.
  • When the seams on each side are well ironed, the pants should be flattened and any remaining fabric ironed.
  • Sometimes a stencil may remain in the area of ​​the pockets due to the high density of the fabric. To prevent this from happening, you need to put, for example, a handkerchief in your pocket. Usually, this action gives a result - after ironing there are no traces left in the area of ​​the pockets.
  • They never make arrows on jeans. They should only be worn on cloth trousers. Arrows made on jeans are considered an expression of bad taste and disregard for clothing.
  • The pants should dry out a little after ironing. They are hung on a rope, laid out on any flat surface.

Some people, when in a hurry, put on pants that are not completely dry. This is not necessary for jeans. Loss of form can be the result. On such trousers, ugly bulges will appear on the knees.

How to iron ripped jeans

For more than one season, ripped jeans have been in fashion among young people. Sometimes the number of holes is difficult to count.

The most fashionable jeans are those with open knees, the material is torn at the hips.

To keep this design stylish, ripped jeans also need to be ironed properly.

Do not use an automatic washing machine to wash such items. She can turn those trousers into a badly torn rag. Only hand wash is suitable for this. If there is an urgent need, as well as a small amount of time, before sending the "tat" to the washer, jeans are wrapped in a bag made of thin fabric.

If washing will be done by hand, the pants must be boiled first. Then they are smoothed after boiling, straightened, hung to dry. Ripped jeans require a delicate approach, especially when ironing. The seams are ironed with care, all even areas. Moreover, the operation must be performed with the imposition of wet gauze. Ironing should be done with an ironing board to prevent backside marks from holes made in the front.

Each leg is slipped onto a reclining piece that is specially designed for good ironing.

Craftsmen do not recommend ironing the fibers of "torn" trousers. If they have acquired a shapeless appearance, you need to sprinkle them a little with water, smooth them well, give them a different position and leave to dry.

Ironing jeans with embellishments

Jeans have always been considered work wear. Time passed, everything changed. To make women's jeans more sophisticated and more “ladies'” or children’s, they began to be decorated:

  • rhinestones;
  • beads;
  • embroidery;
  • sparkles.

Naturally, ironing such pants is much more difficult than regular jeans. If there are a lot of decorative elements on them, you can do without ironing. For this, a special steam generator is used. He is able to give the material its original appearance.

Ironing decals found on children's clothing requires special care. Heating them is strictly prohibited, as they will deteriorate. It is enough to gently straighten them after washing.

How to reduce the number of ironings

Fashion denim manufacturers recommend that pants do not need to be ironed frequently. This can cause creases that look very ugly.

To get rid of the water after washing, you just need to hang them on the rope and wait until it completely drains. To reduce the number of ironing on one product, several technological steps are required.

  • First, zippers, buttons and buttons are fastened on the pants. Then they are turned inside out, and then sent to the washing machine. Only jeans are washed. Other things should be missing.
  • The machine is set to a delicate mode. You can wash these jeans by hand. To do this, you will need laundry soap and washing powder, which does not contain bleaching ingredients.
  • In the last century, fans managed to wash their jeans without removing them. The hipsters believed that as a result of such "washing" the trousers could not sit down.
  • The washed jeans must be squeezed carefully. It is strictly forbidden to twist them like an ordinary doormat. It is enough to hang your pants on a rope in the bathroom and the water will drain off by itself. You just need to wait a little.
  • Before sending jeans to dry, you need to pull them in length as well as in width. The fact is that this material shrinks a little after washing.
  • Drying should take place outdoors or in a well-ventilated area. Moreover, jeans should be in a strictly horizontal position. To do this, the pants are neatly laid out on any flat surface.
  • Of course, compliance with the above rules will help you get a positive effect. If you iron your denim clothes correctly, its lifespan increases dramatically.

Practical experience has shown that denim clothing cannot be dry-cleaned.

During the manufacture of trousers, the material is digested. Several specialty chemicals are involved in this process. In the process of dry cleaning the product, a reaction begins, the result that no one can predict, but the beautiful appearance will be spoiled, that's for sure.

From the foregoing, we can conclude that you can iron jeans, but you must follow all the rules.
