Jeans need to be pre-washed, hung up, and air-dried flat. The fabric will soften as washing removes the finish. The shade of blue will change with each wash due to the material (100% cotton denim).
Machine wash at 30 degrees. Do not tumble dry. Iron at a moderate temperature (150 degrees).
Sergio fabric is dyed with indigo, which results in some color bleeding, a perfectly normal occurrence, especially in the dark blue (the most natural) shade . We advise you to wash and store your fabric with similar colors, and to avoid wearing your dark blue garment with other light-colored clothing or accessories (white t-shirt or shirt, light leather handbag, light-colored canvas, suede, or leather shoes) to prevent color transfer. This phenomenon will diminish as your denim develops a patina. If you wish to avoid these issues, inherent to the nature of raw denim, we recommend choosing medium or light blue.
