How to wash pants: machine and by hand, rules for different fabrics

Preparation

washing is prohibited. In this case, the trousers can only be dry cleaned. Therefore, it is better to have them dry cleaned;
hand wash only. We erase by hand in compliance with the conditions set out below;
machine wash. Slightly "limited" carte blanche in trousers wash.

Washing trousers by hand

If you use a liquid product, then we skip the stage of preparing the solution and apply it directly to the brush. After the manipulations described above, we leave the trousers alone for forty minutes, giving time for the detergent to fully take effect. Then we brush the trousers again with a brush, after which we rinse them thoroughly with the help of a shower head. In no case should the trousers be wrung out after rinsing, as their original shape can be disturbed. The correct solution is to hang them on a special hanger with the belt up and let the water drain. The final stage - we outweigh the trousers on the balcony / street and wait for the final drying.

In the washing machine

Features of washing trousers made of different materials:

wool. Wash in water no warmer than thirty degrees with a product in which there is no chlorine component;
linen and cotton. The main thing to remember is that trousers made of these fabrics can shrink at temperatures above sixty degrees;
synthetics. The optimum washing temperature is thirty to fifty degrees. Also, such a thing must be washed separately from others, otherwise you risk dyeing all clothes in the color of your trousers;
cashmere. Trousers made of such a fabric must be washed by hand in water heated to no more than twenty degrees, in no case stretching and adding a little vinegar when rinsing;
velveteen. Like cashmere, corduroy is afraid of machine wash and, once it gets into the drum, comes out a size smaller and heavily wrinkled. It must be washed exclusively by hand, with a damp sponge at twenty-degree water temperature.

Finally, a few tips:

hanging out trousers - straighten them. This simple manipulation will greatly simplify the ironing process;
it is necessary to iron the trousers before they dry completely, therefore - slightly damp;
it is necessary to iron the trousers through a natural fabric rolled in several layers, avoiding direct contacts between the surface of the iron and the fabric of the trousers;
If there are arrows on the trousers, walk the inside of the arrow with a bar of soap before ironing. This will give them shape and make it easier to "smooth" them.

We hope that by following our advice and recommendations, you will keep your trousers in excellent condition as long as possible and they will delight you and those around you for a long time.
