How to Wash New Denim

When washing new denim, turn them inside out and zip up the zipper, use cold water, select a gentle cycle, and air dry. Wash them alone for the first time. New denim, especially dark wash denim, can bleed dye during its first wash. Washing them with other light-colored clothing can result in unwanted dye transfer.
