02 Sep How to Wash Different Pants.

The method of washing clothes has the greatest impact on their lifespan. The first step in washing pants properly is to turn them inside out. Detergent and water temperature need to be considered thoroughly because each garment has its own characteristics according to the material and type of fabric used in it, which you should know in washing them. In this article, we explain how to wash pants with the least damage to them.

The importance of washing pants correctly.

As mentioned above, if you follow the correct method of washing pants, you will increase the useful life of your clothes. On the other hand, if you wash them is wrong, you should say goodbye to them after a while, especially if they are your favourite clothes. Raising the life of pants is the most important reason to learn how to wash pants.

A variety of washing methods

Clothes have been washed in different ways from the past to the present. They also used different materials and various tools for washing clothes. Today, two general methods, hand washing and washing machine, are used to wash clothes. For each of these two ways, the following items should be considered:

Washing by hand

Washing pants by hand usually does less damage to clothing. But keep in mind that the damage to clothes isn’t just due to hand or machine washing. Pants made of cotton (natural fibres), wool or polyester are best washed by hand. The water temperature shouldn’t be too high; Because high heat is harmful. We don’t recommend shallow temperatures because detergents don’t dissolve easily in water and completely remove dirt.

It should be noted that there are detergents that can be dissolved in cold water that you can use. To prevent detergent stains that sometimes appear after washing, do the following: 

First, pour enough water at the right temperature into the container. Then dissolve enough of the detergent in water so that a completely homogeneous solution is obtained. Finally, soak the pants that you have already soaked in this solution and wash them.

Washing with a washing machine

When washing clothes with a washing machine, you can see that the life of the clothes has been shortened. But if you follow the tips below, you can solve this issue to some extent. Be sure to put the pants upside down in the washing machine to maintain the appearance and quality. Pay attention to the type of clothes you put together. Different fibres will have lint when washing.

Suppose your pants are dark and you put on cotton and coloured T-shirt with it. After washing, you will see coloured lint on your pants. The bad looks created for pants are solvable but time-consuming. Therefore, it’s better to do clothes separation properly from the beginning.

For better protection of the pants, you can use special washing bags. Put the pants in the bag and then in the washing machine with the other clothes. Also, adjust the water temperature and washing quality of the washing machine.

Washing different fabrics

Woollen pants

Never wash woollen pants with warm water. The damage that hot water does to the fibres of a garment causes it to shorten. The best way to wash woollen cloth pants is to wash them by hand with cold water. For drying, never squeeze the pants. Spread it on a hanger or a basket to drain excess water. After that, hang the woollen pants on the strap. If you hang it straight, the pants will change shape.

Cotton or linen pants

This type of fabric can withstand high temperatures. So you can wash cotton or linen pants with warm water. Washing this type of pants with a washing machine is also allowed.

 Polyester pants

Polyester fabrics containing nylon have fine fibres. If you want to wash them in the washing machine, adjust it on synthetic fibres.

Leggings

You can use both hand washing and a washing machine for your pants. Don’t use bleach for this type of pants. Because it can damage and rot the pants’ fibres.
