What Causes Ripples:
Stretchy Fabrics: Elastane or spandex can lose shape with frequent wear and wash, causing warping—especially around knees and thighs.
Rough Washing: Hot water, high-speed cycles, and dryers can damage fibers.
Poor Fit or Quality: Tight or low-quality jeans stretch unevenly and ripple.
Improper Storage: Folding can lead to creases that turn into ripples over time.

Prevention Tips:
Wash Less Often: Spot clean and air them out between wears. Use cold water and gentle cycles.
Skip the Dryer: Air dry to avoid heat damage.
Use Gentle Detergent: Harsh soaps can weaken fibers.
Hang Instead of Fold: Keeps the shape intact.
How to Fix Rippled Jeans:
Steam or Iron: Gently smooth ripples with low heat and a pressing cloth.

Rewash & Reshape: Soak in lukewarm water, reshape while damp, and dry flat or hanging.
See a Tailor: For persistent ripples, a professional can help restore the fit.
When to Replace:
If fabric is thinning or elasticity is shot, it might be time to invest in a better-quality pair.
