Men's Hard-Wearing Denim FAQs
Which type of denim is the most durable in men’s hard-wearing jeans?
- For everyday jeans, cotton twill denim is one of the most durable fabrics to opt for. Cotton twill is a durable structure with diagonal ribbing that reinforces the strength and tear-resistance of the jeans. For heavier styles of jeans, 15oz denim can provide extreme durability and protection, whether you’re working outdoors or with heavy equipment. 15oz denim is more densely woven than other denim fabrics, which helps jeans to maintain their shape and strength for much longer. While jeans made from this fabric can require some wearing to become optimally comfortable, the thicker means that 15oz denim jeans last longer than other styles.
How can I tell if men’s jeans are high quality and durable?
- There are plenty of details to look out for to find the most durable men’s jeans, including fabric thickness, material, hardware and stitching. Firstly, durable denim will generally feel thicker and heavier than less durable varieties, with a tight, even weave around the body of the jeans. Durable materials like cotton twill and 100% denim make for some of the best hard-wearing jeans, as these materials are tear-resistant and strong. High-quality hardware and reinforced stitching are also important in durable men’s jeans, as they provide additional strength to edges and seams for a longer-lasting pair of jeans.
How often should I wash my jeans to maintain durability?
-
li>Jeans should be washed no more than every 10 - 15 wears or when they need to be cleaned and freshened up. Washing jeans too often can age the fabric quickly, leading to weakness, tears, fading and loss of shape over time. When it comes time to wash your jeans, turn them inside out and wash them in a cold machine cycle with a mild detergent. Once washed, allow jeans to naturally air dry to prevent shrinking, and hang them up either inside or in a shady spot outdoors to prevent sun fading.
