1. When buying jeans, leave about 3 centimeters of extra room around the waist. Next time you buy jeans, you don't have to get them tight around your waist. About 3 centimeters of extra room might let your jeans hang right on your hip bones, just as sexy as the models in CK ads. Besides, when you sit down, you don't have to worry about popping the buttons.
2. Buy longer jeans rather than shorter ones. Many jeans will shrink after washing, so when you buy jeans, they should be a little longer. If your jeans are marked with the word "PRESHUNK", it means they have been pre-shrunk, and you don't have to worry about shrinking.
3. If you have jeans but not Converse shoes, then you should put down the magazine and go buy a pair immediately. The famous Swedish jeans brand Nudie once said that Converse shoes are the perfect match for jeans.
4. Don't buy acid wash jeans (Acid Wash Jeans).
Acid wash jeans usually make people look dirty easily. If you don't know what Acid Wash Jeans are, next time just check the label on your jeans.
5. At weddings, funerals, interviews, going to the bank for loans, and explaining "formal attire required" situations, you shouldn't wear jeans.
Artist Andy Warhol once wore jeans to a White House appointment, but this is only applicable to Warhol. Carson Kressley demonstrated the above five situations where jeans are not appropriate.
6. If your body does not meet the standard of male models, then you probably do not suit extremely slim fit jeans. Therefore, buying a size that makes you look decent is very important. Next time in the fitting room, you can sit down and see if the straight leg jeans still have a finger's width of space at the thigh, which indicates the fit is suitable.
7. The standard for testing whether low-rise jeans (Lowrise) are too low is whether the "hair" is showing.
If low-rise jeans are worn well, they can be very fashionable and sexy, but don't go too low. Carson Kressley from the famous American show "Queer Eye for the Straight Guy" said: My rule of thumb is: don't wear "**" pants.
8. Do not wash your jeans, firmly do not wash your jeans.
Levi's Japanese spokesperson Kimura Takuya also loves jeans very much. He advocates never washing jeans, and there is some reason to this. Some unique jeans brands straightforwardly tell you: if you persist in not washing your jeans, they will fit your body better over time.
9. If the above one is unbearable, then please start washing your new jeans after six months.
The Swedish brand Nudie's denim care guide says: A pair of jeans is like your second skin. You and it have an intimate relationship. The more you wear it, the better it looks. And the less you wash it, the better it looks.
10. If your pants accidentally spill red wine, don't rush to wash them with water.
Wine, beer, any alcohol can make your pants smell terrible, but you shouldn't rush to wash them with water either. There are only two solutions: either dry clean or let them sit unwashed until the smell dissipates.
11. If you wash your jeans, use warm water, and don't use bleach.
If you can't be as determined as Kimura Takuya, then use warm water and no bleach, according to the advice given by the famous American magazine "Real Simple."
12. Don't put more than four pairs of jeans in the washing machine at the same time.
More than four pairs of jeans will be very heavy, even affecting the water circulation process of your washing machine. This is not only bad for the washing machine itself, but the jeans won't be cleaned properly, and unsightly wrinkles may appear.
13. No matter what shape your jeans become after washing, don't iron them with an iron.
Trust me, irons are not meant for jeans, so whatever happens, don't take it out.
14. When washing jeans, turn them inside out to wash.
This experience is the truth about jeans, and Levi's jeans care instructions also say so. I emphasize again because this way your jeans will maintain their original color and wash effect.
15. If you don't wash your jeans but are worried about the smell, try putting them in the refrigerator's chill compartment.
This is also a suggestion from the Swedish jeans brand Nudie. Whether it works or not, you can try it, but remember it's the chill compartment, not the freezer.
16. After washing jeans, do not wring them out. You should hang them on a hanger to dry while they are still dripping, which ensures the jeans retain their original shape and creases...
