Jeans, not so much science as it's a compulsive disease

These tips are for those denim freaks, like me, that are quite sure how to keep your jean the way you NEED them to be kept.
#1: You should try to wash your jeans as least as you can. Washing jeans causes them to fade.
#2 Wash your jeans inside-out in cold water to prevent as much fading as possible.
#3 NEVER put your jeans in the dryer; this causes them to shrink to their original size (or even smaller if they were not pre-washed).
#4 If you ever do manage to mess up your jeans bad enough that they require washing, take them to your local dry cleaner. It's a lot cheaper than you think. If you don't believe me give it a try!
#5 If you dont want the dye from your darker jeans bleeding onto your kicks, take them to a tailor and have some fabric of your liking sown onto the cuff plus a couple more inches just in case.
